It should be "template" as this represents facelets templates more than anything else. But that has nothing to do with the article, which was pretty useful :) It seems to me that the “decorator” namespace is really a misnomer.

As an example, one thing you could do is create a directory called popups that is not mapped to your decorator.

I have one question, how can exclude this sitemesh settings from some of the pages for example popup windows. I want to open a popup window but without any header or footer which are including automatically by sitemesh. Thanks in advance. Manmohan Hello, I am very new to sitemesh.
