I have a JSF portlet. The first time it is rendered it starts on the default view.

Now lets say the user navigates through the portlet via the jsf navigation rules, but stops on a view other than the default view. Then the user uses the portal navigation tabs to switch to a different portal page.

Then the user uses the portal navigation tabs to switch back to the portal page with the previous jsf portlet. At this point the jsf portlet is rerendered just as it was when the user switched away from it.

Is it possible to force the JSF portlet to rerender to the default view?
