If you just want to add, say, a header or footer (decoration) around the
head or body content of the pages then sitemesh is absolutely perfect
for the job. You won't need to modify the pages at all, it'll just
decorate them based in your decorator template. You'd be able to have
this working in less than 30 mins sight unseen.
Tiles is good when you want to resuse common components in the pages
(lets call them tiles in the page). That doesn't sound like what you're
doing.

In tiles or sitemesh...is it possible to make a page, say A,....add some
stuff in it and then in an xml file or something.. give the name of pages to
which 'A' should append to?
hmm that sounds rather vague. maybe in my case there is no other way than to
do the same thing on each page?

I prefer Tiles to Sitemesh. Sitemesh is easier to use (at least easier
than
Tiles1, haven't tried Tiles2 yet). The reason I like Tiles better is for
performance. Sitemesh buffers the entire before it can output the content.
This chews up a lot of memory on large pages. For smaller pages, the
memory
footprint is probably negligible, but I'd rather not take the chance.

Helloo
we have an application that is using servlets and some struts2.
We have a problem where we need to add a code snippet in all our
printer friendly pages (current date and logged in user id). We have
over 30 printer friendly pages.
I have not invested a lot of time with sitemesh but just browsed over
it as reading struts 2 tutorials.
Can someone please tell me if we should be looking at sitemesh to
solve this problem..rather than opening each printer friendly page and
adding code to it to show current date and logged in user.
I\'d appreciate any help/hint
