Reset Form Validation on return to page

[todd123]

I have a page for users to change their profile information.  I have several fields required with required="true" and when they click submit the errors show just fine.  But when the user leaves the page and enters it again, the validation errors are still present.  Is there a way to clear the form validation when showing the page on a new request?

pages.xml:
<page view-id="/myProfile.xhtml" login-required="false">
     <action execute="#{myProfileAction.loadMyProfile}"/>
</page>

backing bean:
@Out(required = false, scope=ScopeType.PAGE) Registration registration;
@Begin(join = true)
public void loadMyProfile() {
          try {
               if (null != user.getUserId()) {
                    if (!isPostBack()) {
                    
                         registration = RegistrationDao.readUser(user.getUserId());
                                                  
                         // assign the current instance to tmpRegistration
                         Registration tmpRegistration = this.getInstance();
                                             }
               } else {
                    Messenger.error(Messages.ERROR_LOADING_USER_PROFILE);
               }
          } catch (Exception ex) {
               Messenger.error(Messages.ERROR_LOADING_USER_PROFILE);
               AppLog.logFatal("Exception in loadMyProfile(): ", ex);
          }
     }   


Somehow I want to start with a fresh view on a new request.

A little more information:
I am using jboss-portal-2.7.0, seam 2.2.1, richfaces 3.3.3

I want to be able to click the tab links and start a new view instance on these links if possible.  Thanks

Ok, still working through this issue.  If I create a link inside the xhtml file and redcirect it works:
profile.xhtml

  <s:link id="configureUser" action="#{profileAction.configureUser}" >
         <h:graphicImage value="#{sessionManager.imagePath}/wrench.png" />
  </s:link>

ProfileAction.java
@Begin (join = true)
        public String configureUser() {
                return "/myProfile.xhtml";
        }

This gets me a new view with no validation errors.  But I want to be able to click on a tab from the portal and accomplish this too.  From the default tabs.jsp in the jboss portal server:
<ul>
         <%
            for (Iterator j = tmp.iterator(); j.hasNext();)
            {
               PortalNode childChild = (PortalNode)j.next();
         %>
         <li><a href='<%= childChild.createURL(context) %>'><%= childChild.getDisplayName(locale) %>
         </a></li>
         <%
            }
         %>
     </ul>

Has anyone tried to do this before?  The link in the tab is: /portal/auth/user/myProfile and I want that to create a new view.
