While I was looking into seam and rich faces, I have stumbled upon the Richfaces Photo Album demo. You can see the demo here
http://livedemo.exadel.com/photoalbum/ and get more information of it here
PhotoAlbum Info
The demo seems to be using a MVC pattern for for displaying the content. The demo is constructed so that the user stays on one page, the index.xhtml. When the user clicks on a link, the model is changed and a section of the index.xhtml page, known as the content area, is rerendered with the new content.
This looks to be a good design in for creating an online web application. I was wondering if anybody had any input on this demo and if there are any benefits or problems while following the pattern used in this application.
Sorry if this is a newby question, but I am working on my capstone and have decided to use Seam as my framework. I am trying to find the best approach for creating the application using the frame work. I already own and have read most of 'Seam In Action'. The book contains a lot of info, but it does not seem to have much on the pattern(s) one should follow for creating a bigger application.
Thank you for your time and your input.
If you look at section 3.1.1.2. Navigation Between Pages
You can see more on how the navigation works with the demo.
