<html>
<head>
<meta name="layout" content="myLayout" />
<script src="myscript.js"></script>
</head>
<body onload="alert('hello');">Page to be decorated</body>
</html>pageProperty
Purpose

Examples
Example decorated page:
Example decorator layout:
<html>
<head>
<script src="global.js"></script>
<g:layoutHead />
</head>
<body onload="${pageProperty(name:'body.onload')}"><g:layoutBody /></body>
</html>Results in:
<html>
<head>
<script src="global.js"></script>
<script src="myscript.js"></script>
</head>
<body onload="alert('hello');">Page to be decorated</body>
</html>Another example with more options used is below:
We have a layout gsp file container.gsp
<section>
<header>
<g:pageProperty name="page.title"/>
</header>
<section>
<g:layoutBody />
</section>
</section>The layout is applied to a sub-part of the gsp file using applyLayout tag.
<html>
<head>
<title>Title 1</title>
</head>
<body>
<section class="major-part left-part">
<g:applyLayout name="container">
<content tag="title">
Title 2
</content>
Some other things
</g:applyLayout>
</section>
</body>
</html>This will result in the below page.
<html>
<head>
<title>Title 1</title>
</head>
<body>
<section class="major-part left-part">
<section>
<header>
Title 2
</header>
<section>
Some other things
</section>
</section>
</section>
</body>
</html>Notice how "Title 2" from the content tag was picked via page.title and the rest was picked up by <g:layoutBody />. You can have any number of such content tags with different tag values (e.g. tag="grails") and then use them in your layouts via the pageProperty tag.
