It seems to me that Views (Ti.UI.createView) in Titanium are very limited compared to Windows (Ti.UI.createWindow) when it comes to object types it can contain or am I wrong? I understand that you can add labels, buttons, images, text areas and text fields but can you add another view like a TableView or a WebView to it? Can it display another(external) .js file(‘url’)? Is there anyone that can give me some code examples of how to add these objects to a view(Ti.UI.createView)?

Sure -- you can put pretty much any view subclass inside of a basic view. The biggest restriction I can think of is that you want to avoid putting views that manage their own scrolling inside other views that manage their own scrolling (e.g. a WebView inside a ScrollView is a bad idea).
There are tons of examples of views inside views in the KitchenSink demo (I'm so glad it's been refactored now so I can recommend it).
Download it here and import it into Ti Studio. One particular example is in ui/common/baseui/scroll_views_many.js.
