At the moment I'm not trying to do anything exciting, just decorating the index page would be a start. I've got sitemesh and the filter installed and running, but whats happening is I get a blank page of zero length as a result every time. Been banging my head against this for a couple of hours now and I just can't see whats going wrong.

Does mapping to * help at all?  *.jsp means that it will get called on
the forward from Struts, which isn't necessarily what you want.  The
sitemesh filter should also be first in you mappings, before struts.
