Of course you are not at all limited to only one of these "layout" components. While you can only request one per page or component, the "layout" you request could itself use another layout. For lack of a better term, these used to be called Borders in Tapestry 4.
You can also have these borders on Components, not just pages. This can be useful for wrapping a component in a box, for example. Borders are really simple to make, as you've seen from Marcelo. Now lets say you end up having lots of borders/layout components. If you want to put them into a directory under components/, you'll access them using a "." between the directory name and the border component name. i.e. for components/layouts/border1.html you would use: <t:layouts.border1 xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd";> On 8/22/07, Marcelo lotif <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If this help, try to follow my example above: > > create a class under src/main/java/org/example/myapp/components called > Layout.java, for example.
