/**
 * <p>
 * <strong>Insert a definition.</strong>
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Insert a definition with the possibility to override and specify parameters
 * (called attributes). A definition can be seen as a (partially or totally)
 * filled template that can override or complete attribute values.
 * <code>&lt;tiles:insertDefinition&gt;</code> allows to define these attributes
 * and pass them to the inserted jsp page, called template. Attributes are
 * defined using nested tag <code>&lt;tiles:putAttribute&gt;</code> or
 * <code>&lt;tiles:putListAttribute&gt;</code>.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * You must specify <code>name</code> tag attribute, for inserting a definition
 * from definitions factory.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * <strong>Example : </strong>
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;code&gt;
 *           &lt;tiles:insertDefinition name=&quot;.my.tiles.defininition flush=&quot;true&quot;&gt;
 *              &lt;tiles:putAttribute name=&quot;title&quot; value=&quot;My first page&quot; /&gt;
 *              &lt;tiles:putAttribute name=&quot;header&quot; value=&quot;/common/header.jsp&quot; /&gt;
 *              &lt;tiles:putAttribute name=&quot;footer&quot; value=&quot;/common/footer.jsp&quot; /&gt;
 *              &lt;tiles:putAttribute name=&quot;menu&quot; value=&quot;/basic/menu.jsp&quot; /&gt;
 *              &lt;tiles:putAttribute name=&quot;body&quot; value=&quot;/basic/helloBody.jsp&quot; /&gt;
 *           &lt;/tiles:insertDefinition&gt;
 *         &lt;/code&gt;
