Sounds fine for me, I did the same thing and worked fine, I adopted the Standard of naming actions with the same name as pages and this way I can return directly the viewId to go to a previous page (Again this is possible as I have no complex navigation cases).
Thanks a lot, JV _____ De: Julian Ray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: domingo, 26 de noviembre de 2006 14:57 Para: 'MyFaces Discussion' Asunto: RE: navigation pages history... JV, Our app keeps a stack of views. The get the previous view pop the stack and and push the current view on to it before you return, We also have standardized our navigation mechanism so that each action returns the name of the view to navigate to next and our navigation.xml file maps full view names returned from getViewId() to JSPs. If we have x JSPs there are x <navigation-case> entities. So for us, returning the view from the top of the stack will force the navigation handler to navigate to that view. Very simple and easy to manage. _____ From: Jorge Vásquez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, November 26, 2006 1:44 PM To: 'MyFaces Discussion' Subject: RE: navigation pages history... Thanks Julian. Ive Still got one more question: 1. I am using facelets and in facelets that method returns the name of the page, which seems interesting, I need to somehow force a redirect to the page returned and stored previously. How can I force a redirect to a specific page without using the traditional steps of returning an action String and according to that action String and to the rules defined in faces_config.xml let the faces Servlet do the forward. Again, I want to do an explicit forward from an action method to a specific page, how can I accomplish this?

Just use a session scoped bean and add a stack to it. You can get the last view rendered using the following return FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getViewId(); _____ From: Jorge Vásquez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 24, 2006 9:09 PM To: 'MyFaces Discussion' Subject: navigation pages history... Regards, Is there a way to see the las accessed page that the user was at. Moreover, is there some sort of stack that keeps track of the last accessed pages by a specific user inside a JSF application? Thanks, JV
