Hi Zied,
adress is infact a declared managed bean in faces config (at a moment I thougth there is a conflict with a request attribute with the same name, but the code is now working so the problem isn't there).
This could be the problem. If the value of the request attribute is null this may be the reason. If there is a request attribute 'adress' there is no further lookup in session or application scope, even when the value is null (afaik). Regards, Volker
