Answer / shinde

Tiles is a plugin in struts.
Where you can give alias for different jsp's.
It works similar to include tag in jsp.
In tiles you can mention what should be a header a footer and content etc.. for a particular page.
The alias can be called from struts config file.
Eg:
If you have an Index page and you have want to include header and a footer in the jsp,
you can do it by using the include tag
orelse you can create an alias for index.jsp in tiles
(eg: index.page) and define the header and footer for that particular page in tiles.
In struts config, instead of forwarding to index.jsp, forward it to index.page.
The difference would be, forwarding to index.jsp, wont contain header and footer, where as forward to index.page
will have header and footer.
