If you are doing exactly what you describe above, you're doing it wrong. The only prerender() method that is called is for the view that will actually be rendered ... in other words, you should put the code in the prerender() method of Page2, not Page1. The whole idea is that all the code associated with a particular view should be in one class (the backing bean for that JSP page). Otherwise, if you had three different pages that all navigated to Page2, then you'd have to duplicate the setup logic in three different places. Craig
