public class InsertTemplateDirective
extends org.apache.velocity.runtime.directive.Directive

Insert a template.

Insert a template with the possibility to pass parameters (called attributes). A template can be seen as a procedure that can take parameters or attributes. <tiles:insertTemplate> allows to define these attributes and pass them to the inserted jsp page, called template. Attributes are defined using nested tag <tiles:putAttribute> or <tiles:putListAttribute>.

You must specify template attribute, for inserting a template

Example :

 <code>
           <tiles:insertTemplate template="/basic/myLayout.jsp" flush="true">
              <tiles:putAttribute name="title" value="My first page" />
              <tiles:putAttribute name="header" value="/common/header.jsp" />
              <tiles:putAttribute name="footer" value="/common/footer.jsp" />
              <tiles:putAttribute name="menu" value="/basic/menu.jsp" />
              <tiles:putAttribute name="body" value="/basic/helloBody.jsp" />
           </tiles:insertTemplate>
         </code>
