Does JSF need request forward?

When i access a page directly in JSF, the beans on the page are not

tightly coupled to the client/session, and i get inconsistent values on

the setXXX property methods. Only when i pass through a dummy page that

forwards to my real page, the JSF beans work correctly.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Yuval

How are you initializing your beans?
