Olaf,
The reason the URL is not changing is you need to specify in your navigation
rules that the case is a redirect by adding the <redirect /> tag to the rule.
Something along the lines of:
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>*</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>organization-search</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/organization/searchForm.jsp</to-view-id>
<redirect />
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
As for your other issue (seeing the JSP source in the generated HTML) we
have not had that issue, and we are using tiles to pull together the multiple
layouts for our site. Perhaps could you give us a code snippet that shows
where your 'content' tile is inserted in your layout tile definition and then
some of your searchForm.jsf or something?
Sorry you're having such problems and hope they clear up,

Subject: [Tiles] Included tile not compiled (additional info)
Since nobody responded to my first post and sine further this problem is
starting to become a real showstopper potentially blocking our adoption of JSF
I try to give some further info, little as it may be.
I have a main navigation bar for switching between modules, registered as
global navigation rules. If I switch from /common/startPage.jsf[=tiles] to
/organization/searchForm.jsf by clicking on the navigation link
(h:commandLink) the URL in my browser remains unchanged, yet the "sideActions"
tile will be correctly inserted and transformed into HTML. The "content" tile,
though, will be inserted verbatim, i.e. I can see the JSP source in the
generated HTML. Only after a second click on the same link does the URL change.
If I change back to /common/startPage.jsf I need two clicks to change the
browser URL, yet the "sideActions" as well as the "content" tile both will be
inserted and transformed correctly.
Since even after staring at the tiles-defs.xml for nearly a week without
noticing any structural differences between /common/startPage.tiles and
/organization/searchForm.tiles I strongly suspect that this is a bug in
MyFaces' tiles integration. Did anyone encounter a similar phenomenon and maybe
found a workaround for it?
Thx,
Olaf
