Need to select link twice when using Browser back button

I see that my command_link works fine in normal scenarios.
But when I come to that page using browser back button and then select the link within the page.... the first time, looks like its regenerating the page and only when I select the link second time it is calling the action listener associated with the link.
Any clue as to how to fix this problem?
Thanks

use the following lines in your web.xml to avoid this bug of the current jsf-ri version.
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD</param-name>
<param-value>client</param-value>

Open previously viewed Tabbed Panel when using browser back button

I have a page containing SPRY tabbed panels, and was wondering if there was a way that if a user navigates back to this page using the browser back button, the last panel viewed could remain open. Using hash tags in the URL works for Mozilla but not for IE8. Here is the sample page: http://www.davidkneale.com/wcusa/expedition_leader.html
Does anyone know how I can get this to work in IE8?

Perhaps you missed the announcement that Adobe is no longer investing in the development of Spry. See: http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framework-availability.htm l.
There used to be a dedicated Spry forum, but it has been changed to read-only.
Spry isn't exactly dead, but nor is it in the best of health. Add to that the fact that IE 8 doesn't support the HTML5 history management API, and the lack of replies isn't really surprising.

Form field validation: All required data lost when clicking browser-back-button!

Hi folks,
I have a big problem using the validation text field components of Spry when the user must click the browser back button (or clicking a history.back()-Link) because he has entered a wrong CAPTCHA-code!
Right now, all the data - only in the required fields - not in the optional fields!!! - is lost and the user has to enter all data once again;-(
Does anybody know why only the data in the required fields is lost? Is there a nice workaround?
I really appreciate a quick answer:-)
Kind regards from cloudy Germany

rememberFormInputs('frmlogin', 'input-');
'frmlogin' should be the id of page, not the name. so on your <form> tag, add the id="frmlogin"
remove the
// overload alert
function alert(str) {
     var el = document.getElementById('alert');
     if (el) {
          el.value += str+"\r\n";
Its really bad practice to overwrite the alert. and inside the rememberFormInputs remove these lines:
alert('old value remembered: '+old_value);
alert('setCookie: '+name + ' = '+value);
and it should work

Exception when using browser refresh button

When using the browser refresh button, there is a prompt to re-submit data. Once the user selects Retry, an exception is thrown (see below).
The SelectBean is of ViewScope and is listed in adfc-config.xml as such. The SelectBean is used to set session attributes based user selection of a row from a af:table.
Is this the incorrect set up? Should this be a backing bean instead? We were expecting to see a prompt of navigating away from the page (similar to the behaviour here: [http://andrejusb.blogspot.ca/2011/07/how-to-handle-web-browser-buttons-in.html] ) instead of a resubmission prompt to be able to handle a user using the browser buttons.
Thanks!

Try something like requestScope or backingBeanScope.

Why does Safari refresh the page when using the back button?

Safari didn't use to do this.
Even on these forums, when you hit the back button to go back exactly where you were at, if there are new posts, the entire page may have changed. I knew exactly the next post I wanted to look at before the page was refreshed. Now, I can't even find the post I wanted to read unless I scroll through the entire list again.
I need to be able to go back to the page I was just on and not have it refresh.
I need to go back exactly where I was.
Safari can't even go back properly as it wants to go back near the top of the last page I was on.
I need it to go back exactly where I was at.
I have no idea what the engineers are thinking about this one.
FireFox works properly when going back to the prior page.
I have long lists on pages I work with.
For example:
1. through 1,000.
If I am on reference number 500 on the previous page, when I hit back, it goes all the way back up to around 20 in the list.
I have to then scroll manually page down to 500 where I was at.
This is tedious, cumbersome and unnessesary.
Safari was much better before it was updated to this horrible behavior.
I don't know of any preferences you can change to change this odd behavior.
Anyone know of anyway to stop this horrible behavior in Safari?
This is like reading a book, but when you go back a page, the entire page may have changed and I have no idea where I was at.
Pretty $iss poor in my opinion.

Yes, that is correct.
However, you can also use the mouse or trackpad to swipe back a page and it still refreshes the last page.
Safari never did this back in Snow Leopard and maybe some versions of Safari in Lion.
However, Safari in Mountain Lion always does this.
It is very cumbersome using the "open link in new window" or "open link in new tab".
It was much better just being able to click the back button or swiping to get back exactly where you were on the prior page.
Hopefully more people will send Apple feedback on this.
Thanks for sharing.

Browser back button not maintain selections on previous page?

Hi every one
1. The following is my code for a home page.
<h:form>
    <h:selectManyCheckbox value="#{home.value}">
         <f:selectItems value="#{brandItems}"/>
    </h:selectManyCheckbox>
    <h:commandButton action="#{home.display}" value="Submit" />
    <s:link value="view newxt page" action="#{temp.getAll}" view="/table.xhtml" />
</h:form>2. This is my session bean code
@Stateful
@Name("home")
public class TempAction implements Temp,Serializable
     private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
     String []value;
    @Out(required=false)
    List<SelectItem> brandItems;
     @Begin(join=true)
     public void getAll() {
          brandItems=new ArrayList<SelectItem>();
          brandItems.add(new SelectItem("First","First"));
          brandItems.add(new SelectItem("Second","Second"));
     public String[] getValue() {
          return value;
     public void setValue(String[] value) {
          this.value = value;

}3. I invoke getAll method by using following code in my pages.xml
After visiting the second page by clicking the s:link , I go back to the first page by using browser BACK button . Then when I hit the SUBMIT button, I get the following error message in my jboss console and also the check boxs are deselected.

Did you ever find a solution? I'm having this issue also.

Browser Back Button and form navigation

Some times when you use browser back button and adf-taskflow navigation buttons, validation on form fails, witout having made any change even with enabled token validation.
Reproduction steps on HR schema:
1. Create QueryDepartment and EditDepartment Views and navigation rules in adfc-config.xml
2 Create ADF view only table page for QueryDepartment selectable, and add navigation button to go to EditDepartment
3. Create EditDepartment form with navigation buttons and button to navigate back to QueryDepartment
test:
1.Run QueryDepartment and select a department
2.Go to Edit Department using navigation button
3.Navigate to next department pressing the 'Next' button
4.Navigate back using the Browser Back button.
5.Try to navigate back to QueryDepartment using the navigation button.
My result is validation error on DepartmentId field 'Error: JBO-25013: '
Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Hi,
maybe I don't get it, but as I understood you have problem with focus on select button. So why don’t you set focus onLoad on another element of your page?
Something like onload=”$x(‘ELEMENT_NAME’).focus()”;

Browser back button does not work (IE) - Error On Page message

Just take over website from our designer; I'm new, probably doing more fiddling on the live remote website than I should be...
http://www.cmcwny.org
Error On Page message, internal links work, but the browser Back button does not (at least in IE).
I have a backup of my local site from before this happened, but I do not know how to actually replace it.
Any help on either issue will be appreciated, thanks!

Hi
First, get rid of your designer, the page design/code is a mess.
There are a number of problems with the page, not least being the disabling of the back button in all browsers I tested it in, (visitors may visit once with this, but are unlikely to do so a 2nd time).
The menu system is a fixed size so that when the browser is resized it overflows the browser window.
The use of tables for layout is not recommended as it is inaccessible to users using assistive devices.
To put this more politely, if you paid for this, ask for your money back. If you did not pay, then start again and use one of the dreamweaver layouts for your page, for more info, see - http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/introducing_new_css_layouts.html.

OA Framework browser back button

Hello,
How does OA Framework figure out navigation using browser back button?
I am taking an example from the tutorial which comes with JDeveloper.
There are these 2 pages EmpSearchPG(X) and EmployeePG(Y), there is an explict link from X to Y and an implicit link from Y to X (when you create an employee or cancel employee creation process).
This is the scenario
1. You start from page X
2. You go to page Y, by clicking on the link to page Y from page X
3. You come back to page X with browser back button
4. You again go to page Y, by clicking on the link to page Y from page X
In this case control first comes in processRequest of the page X controller and then processFormRequest of the page X controller and
OA Framework does this because it detects the browser Back button navigation. How does OA Framework figure this out?
regards, Yora

Which function are you using for parameter setting? Setting parameter on pageContext will be lost on back button. Use putTransientSessionValue to set the parameter.
But to be on the safer side, now that you have found the reason of NPE as the back browser button, follow the back browser button handling section in Dev guide to handle that scenario also.

Browser back button not working with ADF Application integrated with SSO

I have integrated an adf application with Oracle SSO Authentication. Application is running fine.
Though, while navigating between pages, using browser back button , it is not redirecting the url properly
Should Redirect it to : http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>/<servlet>/<id>
Presently Redirecting it to :http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>
As, directory browsing is not allowed, there is Error 403--Forbidden .
Can anybody tell what changes needs to be made to make browser back button work.

In some of the documentation I have read, they have mentioned that using the back button in a browser doesn't work too well with any JSF type of application (not just ADF and Jdeveloper apps).
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/web.1111/b31974/web_form.htm#CFHHJGJH
Instead, they suggest using buttons on the form.
There is a video on using navigation between forms that may be of value: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsPtmRID5XI&feature=plcp

ADF Browser Back Button Issue

Hi All,
I am using jdeveloper version 11.1.1.6.0.
when I use browser back button to go to back page it behaves in very bad manner a popup comes saying
"To display this page,Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as search or order confirmation ) that was performed earlier"
and Resend and Cancel button came at the bottom of the popup If I cancel it then it does not show proper information.
What is the way to handle back button in such a way that it should not behave in bad way get back to previous state.

Hi All,
In webcenter portal their is client state saving mechanism which stores states of the client .We have to make an entry in web.xml file.

Does increasing this value is an answer to my question

After doing a Google search, I click on a link and go to the searched web page. When I go back to the Google page using the back button the links I originally clicked on no longer show as "greyed out". Any idea what is going on with the browser?

Type '''about:config''' in the Location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key. When you see a warning, click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' button.
* Preferences that have been modified are shown as '''bold (user set)'''.
* Preferences can be '''Reset to the default''' or changed via the right-click context menu.
-> In the '''Filter bar''', type '''browser.sessionhistory.max_entries'''
* Right click the preference '''browser.sessionhistory.max_entries''' and click '''Modify'''
* Change value from 0 to whatever you want over 0 (Default value is 50)
* click OK
-> Close the '''about:config''' tab and then Restart Firefox.

Browser "back" button won't work when linked from Catalyst graphic

I am using Flash Catalyst in (CS5 Design Premium) because I am much more a print than web designer so bear with me.
I created a .swf file in FC, and placed it at the top of a "router index" page. I linked 10 "buttons" in the .swf, each to a different anchor on the "router index" page. Clicking on each "button" jumps to the correct anchor, so far so good.
The problem is, when I hit the browser "BACK BUTTON" in IE only (Safari and Firefox work fine), it does not jump back to the top of the "router index" page. It jumps back to a previously opened page (homepage or another page), instead of back to the FC .swf graphic on the "router index".
FC apparently only allows linking to "absolute" URL's, not "relative" URL's, (so my links to the anchors are "absolute"). I don't know if this is the source of the problem with IE. I have always linked to anchors previously in Dreamweaver using "relative" URL's, and have never encountered this problem.
I looked over the files that FC creates and cannot find one that I understand, or shows an editable file path that I can change.
I hope i don't have to buy Flash Builder. Right now I have Design Premium. And... I don't understand Actionscript.

Hi azaral
Take a look at Project > Quiz Manager... > Quiz
Settings tab. My guess is that you have DE-selected the "Allow
backward movement" check box.

The browser back button is not working correctly when using the search funtion in ProBoards forums. Is there a known issue with ProBoards & FF?

I have submitted a bug report to ProBoards, but they cannot duplicate the problem I am having, so I am submitting this here in hopes you can find a solution.
At ProBoards Support and another PB forum while doing searches I found this problem, which continues with repeated testing over the past week or so:
url: http://support.proboards.com/search
1. enter perameters for the search (posts only by staff for the last 2 days)
2. choose one of those post results & click on it (choose a post on page 14 and not on page 1 of the results)
3. using the browser back button, attempt to return to the previous page of search results
4. rather than being taken back to the search results with my parameters, the search parameters have been removed and the page show 1000 results of posts by everybody.
I have tested this over and over again, disabling plugins, and nothing seems to alter the malfunctioning of the back button when I am doing this search function at ProBoards.
I have tested it in Internet Explorer and find that in IE the browser back button works properly with ProBoards searches. I always get the result I expect, so it's a problem with how FF interfaces with ProBoards, I think.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
