I'm new to tiles, and I'm trying to understand why this doesn't work
properly. I'm using the Tiles Plugin in struts config so that I can
use a single template and just pop in the forms which I've got in jspf
files. If my 'inserted' components have a .jsp extension everything
works fine; however, if I use .jspf extension for components, the
custom tag stuff doesn't get rendered. I suppose this isn't a huge
problem (I could just rename the components to jsp extensions), but I'm
wondering if there is simply some kind tiles attribute I am missing or
something. I've seen some examples in other postings which appear to
use components with jspf extensions and don't have any problems.
Any ideas?

S.
