Hello guys,

I'm have troubling making the 'browser's back button' feature works, using JBoss 4.2 and Seam 2.0.

I basically have a page, called Topic.xhtml, displaying some topic.
Earch topic has some children, so when I click on a topic on that page, I change the value of the 'selectedTopic' outjected property and reload the Topic.xhtml page that displays the children of selectedTopic.
Basically, I can't get the browser's back button to work.

This is the content of Topic.xhtml:

<h:form>

 <h:dataTable value="#{selectedTopic.children}" var="topic">
 <h:column>
 <h:commandLink action="#{topicManager.viewTopic(topic)}">#{topic.relativeName}</h:commandLink>
 </h:column>
 </h:dataTable>

 </h:form>

This is my back SFSB:

@Stateful
@Name("topicManager")
@Scope(SESSION)
@Conversational
public class TopicManager implements TopicManagerInterface {
...
 @Begin(join = true)
 public String viewTopic(Topic topic)
...
}

And I added this to pages.xml:

<page name="viewTopic"
 view-id="/Topic.xhtml"
 back="enabled">
 <redirect/>
 <transition to="viewTopic"/>
 <transition name="complete" to="complete"/>
</page>

Note that the first time Topic.xhtml is called, it's by the viewTopic method.

As I understand it, the problem is that the back button sends me to the last viewed page seen BEFORE Topic.xhtml.
The problem is that I want to send him back to Topic.xhtml, but just with the data state rollbacked.

Dunno, maybe that's not even possible?
