Tag put

Put an attribute into tile/component/template context.

Define an attribute to pass to tile/component/template. This tag can only be used inside 'insert' or 'definition' tag. Value (or content) is specified using attribute 'value' (or 'content'), or using the tag body. It is also possible to specify the type of the value :

- string : Content is written directly.
- page | template : Content is included from specified URL. Name is used as an URL.
- definition : Content come from specified definition (from factory). Name is used as definition name.

If 'type' attribute is not specified, content is 'untyped', unless it comes from a typed bean.

Note that using 'direct="true"' is equivalent to 'type="string"'.
