View = ViewID by default (parameters are not part of the viewID). So if you do the forwarding, you will have the same view. The only difference will be your request parameters (name parameter) which you can access from the view or backing beans.

I have a system which relies heavily on URL rewriting. The same JSF page is used to serve different pages, for instance request "/Products/Product 1" is forwarded to "/productView.jsf?name=Product 1" and request "/Products/Product 2" is forwarded to "/productView.jsf?name=Product 2" I have been wondering what consequences this has for MyFaces. I know that according to JSF MyFaces is allowed to cache the views in session scope and reuse them, but since I forward all requests to the same view, I would like to know if MyFaces is able to tell the difference. Are both of the above requests seen by MyFaces as the same view, or two different views after the forwarding? Randahl
