Thanks Antonio,

I'll have a look at dimensions. My needs are simple, which is why I'm
surprised that functionality doesn't exist.

I'd like to use a filter to the determine the request domain and set a
variable {domain} that tiles can use for the base template file.

For example it would be great if some way I could use the definition below.

<definition name="main.page" path="/WEB-INF/${domain}/templateGeneral.jsp">
          <put name="title"  value="Welcome to Healthscope Intranet" />

          <put name="menu" value="/WEB-INF/core/menuUser.jsp" />
         <put name="body"   value="/WEB-INF/pages/pageContent.jsp" />

</definition>


As it stands it looks like I might have to put this kind of logic into
templateGeneral.jsp which then uses a dynamic include based on the ${domain}
value. Not the cleanest solution but it should work.
