Passing a static param in pages.xml

[monkeyden]

I am trying to pass a static param to an action method when a specific view id is invoked. I have tried the following ways to no avail:

pages.xml

<page view-id="/propertySearch/test1.xhtml" action="#{manager.createAction}">
 <param name="paramName" value="advancedPropertySearch"/>

</page>
<page view-id="/propertySearch/test1.xhtml" action="#{manager.createAction('advancedPropertySearch')}" />
<page view-id="/propertySearch/test1.xhtml" action="#{manager.createAction(1)}" />

components.xml

<factory name="advancedPropertySearch" auto-create="true" value="advancedPropertySearch"/>

I happen to be using ICEFaces 1.6DR#4 (which has it's own el jars) with Seam 1.2.1. I seem to remember Seam having a separate jar file for EL extensions. Maybe I need to use those?

Thanks

Have you tried the following?

<param name="paramName" value="#{'advancedPropertySearch'}"/>

Yeah, I spaced. I tried that and it actually worked. Something else failed and I assumed it was that EL expression. All is right in the world....for the time being.

Thanks
