You could do something like this: ******** Layout.tml
<html xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd";> <head> <t:delegate to="head"/> </head> <body> <div class="container"> <div class="left-nav">yadayada</div> <div class="content"><t:delegate to="body"/></div> </div> </body> </html> public class Layout { @Property private Block _head; @Property private Block _body; @Inject private ComponentResources _resources; void setupRender() { _head = getComponentBody("head"); _body = getComponentBody("body"); } private Block getComponentBody(String id) { final ComponentResources pageResources = _resources.getPage().getComponentResources(); // Throws Exception if id doesn't exist... catch it if you don't want to require the id final Component head = pageResources.getEmbeddedComponent(id); return head.getComponentResources().getBody(); } } ********* Page.tml <html t:type="layout" xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd";> <head t:type="any" t:id="head"> <title>This is a wicked title</title> <style type="text/css"> h1 { color: red; } </style> </head> <body t:type="any" t:id="body"> <h1>This is the headline</h1> </body> </html> On Wed, Mar 17, 2010 at 11:18 AM, Robert Hailey <rob...@cmediacorp.com> wrote: > > I'm using 5.1.0.5 and thought I could do something like this... > > [Page.tml] > <html t:type="layout" > xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_1_0.xsd";> > <head t:type="header"> > <title>My Page Title</title> > </head> > <body t:type="passthru"> > <h1>My Page Content</h1> > </body> > </html> > > The 'passthru' component was easy to make, but apparently the > t:extension-point works much more logically than I was expecting, > re-rendering it's parent template. :) > > [Header.tml] > <t:extend xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_1_0.xsd";> > <t:replace id="headerExtensionPoint"> > <t:body/> > </t:replace> > </t:extend> > > So my question is this, is there a component whose body can be swapped out > based on the presence of another component in the tree?
