Thanks Ted for this link. Just getting into Struts again after a long hiatus
so I'm sure your starting book will really help.

Quick sort of OT question for anyone. Reading the first chapter of Ted's
Starting Struts 2 book it mentions SiteMesh integration.. I'm curious if
people are still working with this and is active development still going on
with it? I let the development team know of a serious issue with Site Mesh a
long time ago but the community seemed pretty dead...

The issue is that SiteMesh, to act using the decorator pattern, decides to
pull out the entire page contents and store it in a StringBuffer. This can
cause serious memory issues. I stumbled upon this when I actually was trying
to use Site Mesh and had a large page to display that caused out of memory
errors running Tomcat locally (since the amount of content that was trying
to get stored in StringBuffer was too large for the amount of memory). Even
if the pages aren't large, the way it decorates by using internal storage of
the entire page content in a StringBuffer seems to be a big drawback to me.
