      I dont' have path problems because my page is rendered, but the parameter is not passed and I don't know why.

      So what's the matter?

      Thanks!!

          Hi, I don't think you want the f:event tag nested inside the f:viewParam. The main thing is to

          check if the parameter is actually being passed to the page, is it visible in the browser URL

          on the new page?

           

          I think you need something like this:

           

          <a4j:commandButton action="newPage?faces-redirect=true&amp;includeViewParams=true">

            <f:param ...>

          </a4j:commandButton>

           

          (you don't require faces-redirect=true, but it will update the browser url to the current page, and

          so you should be able to see of the parameter is getting passed...)

           

          I can't honestly remember if I used to use f:param, a4j:param or f:setPropertyActionListener

          nested inside the commandButton.

           

          I can't find an example because I now use the Myfaces CODI @ViewAccessScoped which means

          I don't need to use view parameters any more, which is a relief, because it's a fairly horrible way to

          pass data between pages.

           

          Regards,

          Brendan.

            Thanks for your answeer.

            The problem is that I want to came to my page from an other web site. So I can use a an commandButton. Yes my parameter is it visible in the browser URL on the new page. But The bean is not update. So I really don't know what to do.

              Ok, have you moved the f:event outside the f:viewParam tags? what is the data type of mysession.id? what

              data is passed in the url? I was thinking that maybe if it's an int or suchlike you may need a converter

              because the data in the url will be a string. Is there anything in the server logs?

                I found the same problem on AS 7.0.1.Final. The problem only occurs when using a jsf template.

                 

                I appears that viewParam isn't executed if the <f:metadata><f:viewParam /></f:metadata> facet is placed in a template.

                 

                I've stopped using templates for the time being.

                  It turns out that <f:viewParam> does work in AS 7.0.1.Final, but you need to go in the <ui:composition> in the target pages, not the template.
