Hi :-)
I'm aware that this question has been asked before, but I can't find a
satisfactory answer anywhere, so here goes:
My JSF app uses session beans. I've got a simple one that backs a search
page. My welcome page currently does this:
<c:redirect url="/search.html"/>
This kind of works, in the sense that the JSF page is loaded. However,
in order to navigate to the search page I usually call
mySearchBean.newSearch() - which will reset all the search fields and
what have you. When I redirect to the page, stale data is still there.
Basically, I'm looking for a way that'll get my welcome page to execute
the jsf backing bean action, instead of an ugly jsp redirect.
Any takers?
Ta :-)
