	</definition>

</tiles-definitions>

Open in new window

Now how do i find out whether standard.jsp is included in my webpage or securestandard.jsp is included.

Also whats the use of tiles.xml

I need to add some parameters in model so that i can access it in additionalAddDisplay.jsp
I am also unable to find out which file is reponsible for this so that i could include the parameters in map and then access it in this jsp.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

The answer to your above question requires some more information. Can you please provide your spring xml configuration files? Also (if there is not too many of them) can you provide the code for your Spring Controller classes? This information should be able to tell us where this is all coming from, but at a high level... your Controller class will generally state which "view" should be rendered to the client, and this "view" will be mapped in some way (there are numerous hence why the extra info required) to a definition "name" that links to your tiles.xml file as given above. Then as you can probably see from the above, the definition refers to the layout template and any attributes to provide to that template.

So anyway from the above tiles.xml you can work out the list of "definitions" that use either standard.jsp or secureStandard.jsp...

standardLayout
secureStandardLayout
printETicketLayout
errorStatusPage (indirectly via standardLayout)
error (indirectly via standardLayout)
erroredSearch (indirectly via standardLayout)

and so we just need to work out what controller methods refer ultimately to those definition names.
