I'm trying to integrate sitemesh into my struts2 app, but i'm finding that it's not making any difference and isn't showing any errors (or anything sitemesh related at all) in the logs.
I've started by following all the documentation on the sitemesh site, had no luck, so now i'm trying to copy what's been done in the sitemesh-example download, to no avail. Any ideas would be great.
