We have already seen a Tapestry page in our first application in the previous
chapter and that page was represented by a combination of two files??”Start.tml
and Start.java. It is easy to guess that Start.tml is the page template. Let's have
another look at the contents of this file:

Tapestry Start Page

This is the start page for this application, a good place
to start your modifications.
Just to prove this is live:

The current date and time is: ${currentTime}.

[refresh]

You can see that the template is a proper XML document with the element as
its root (XML declaration is omitted here, and it is not required, as a matter of fact). It
also has a namespace declaration:
xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd"
The Foundations of Tapestry
[ 50 ]
This declaration basically says that any element or attribute having the t prefix
belongs to the Tapestry namespace, such as this single component used on the
Start page:

This is a PageLink component.
