Instead of using the navigation rule I am calling the externalContext.redirect(url) and returning null from the backing bean method.
Dennis Byrne: Did you get any ideas ? Srikanth -----Original Message----- From: Srikanth Madarapu Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2005 2:57 PM To: MyFaces Discussion Subject: RE: url of the current page. I have a page with an applet. That page is loaded with a navigation rule which cannot have redirect set to true. The applet on the resulting page may find that the client does not have JRE installed. On IE, in such case, the information bar appears with a message saying that this page needs some activeX control. When you click on that information bar the user will be given a choice of installing the control. When the user clicks on the install activex control, the browser is refreshing the page. Because the url of that page is actually pointing to the previous page the refresh is causing to back the previous page. If I can set the url of the current page with the correct url this wont happen. I think I have found a solution, not tested yet. I will post the results once I am done. But please give your input on how to solve this problem.

May I ask why the URL is needed? Obviously the controller uses this - but when an application developer needs it, it may indicate the logic is "location" specific, and therefore not portable. ---- Original message ---- >Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2005 14:20:29 -0400 >From: "Srikanth Madarapu" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: url of the current page. >To: "Apache My Faces (E-mail)" <[email protected]> > >Hi > > When a page is loaded with a navigation rule, the url of that page will refer to the previous page's url, if the redirect is not set in the navigation rule.
