Thanks for replying so quickly.
Here is my Trinidad menu.xml. As you can see, I'm not using any actions here; instead I'm using the destination attribute, which I believe works similar to a hyperlink. <menu xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/menu";> <itemNode id="in1" label="Index Page" destination="/gcm/faces/index.jspx" focusViewId="/index.jspx" visable="true" /> <itemNode id="in1in1" label="Page Two" destination="/gcm/faces/page2.jspx" focusViewId="/page2.jspx" visable="true" /> <itemNode id="in1in2" label="Page Three" destination="/gcm/faces/page3.jspx" focusViewId="/page3.jspx" visable="true" /> <itemNode id="in1in3" label="Page Four" destination="/gcm/faces/page2.jspx" focusViewId="/page2.jspx" visable="true" /> <itemNode id="in1in4" label="Page Five" destination="/gcm/faces/page2.jspx" focusViewId="/page2.jspx" visable="true" /> </menu> I think I'm starting to see my problem. For OnLoad to work, do I need have navigation in faces-config.xml for each page? Something like… <navigation-rule> <from-view-id>/index.jspx</from-view-id> <navigation-case> <from-outcome>notloggedin</from-outcome> <to-view-id>/login.jspx</to-view-id> </navigation-case> </navigation-rule> If this is true, do I put the navigation-rule in for the page I'm loading or the one I'm leaving? Is there a generic handling of this in faces-config.xml. Such as any page that returns with an action of "notloggedin" would go to the login.jspx page?
