I am not sure I understand. In treeBean, how do I get a folderBean(that will be created if it doesn't exist). I was looking at

FacestContext
ExternalContext

I could not find any methods that I can use to look up "folderBean"(and create a FolderBean if one doesn't exist), but I suppose I am just missing this. Could you point me to the method?

LASTLY, can this bean be request scoped in this case then? it sounds like it to me, but I am a newb in this stuff.

thanks,
dean

In order to send information from one bean to another you can use the variable resover or the value binding. When the action to navigate from tree.jsp to editFolder.jsp, you can locate the folderBean (if it doesn't exist it'll be created) and set the data you want to send.

    I am have this

    treeBean -> tree.jsp
    folderBean -> editFolder.jsp

    When someone click on the tree.jsp, I need to fill in the folderBean
    with the folderName, folderId, and folderDescription
    properties.  What
    is the best design for this?  I am quite the newb to all this.  I am
    thinking session state right now is easiest, and I retrieve the
    folderBean in treeBean.editFolder() action method and fill it in, so
    when editFolder.jsp renders, it renders with the correct data.  Please
    suggest alternatives and what you think is the best.

    Lastly, what about dealing with someone who opens up two windows(which
    would be in the same session).  Couldn't he possibly step on himself
    since I am storing this stuff in the session above?
