Why not just do a simple forward? getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(forwardUrl).forward(req, res);
-----Original Message----- From: Tim Pyle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 11, 2005 10:48 AM To: [email protected] Subject: JSF Forward -- Off Subject I do not think this really is myFaces specific or not as i have not tried with Sun's RI. But I think it is more just my lack of JSF navigation knowledge. I am attempting to build a tag that can check for certain data at the begining of page. This tag takes the attributes, var, and url. What it is supposed to do is check the session for valid data in the "var" attribute. And if the data is not there or valid, it should then forward the request off to the given "url". Can someone look at the code and tell me where I am messing up, or if I am going down the wrong path altogether. Any help is greatly appreciated. Current strUrl is "/buPage.jsp" if (session.getAttribute(strVar) == null) { Logger.debugln("viewRoot before: " + context.getViewRoot().getViewId()); UIViewRoot viewRoot = context.getApplication().getViewHandler().createView(context,strUrl); viewRoot.setViewId(strUrl); context.setViewRoot(viewRoot); Logger.debugln("viewRoot after : " + context.getViewRoot().getViewId()); context.renderResponse(); } Tim *********************************************************************** Bear Stearns is not responsible for any recommendation, solicitation, offer or agreement or any information about any transaction, customer account or account activity contained in this communication. ***********************************************************************
