Page navigation vs url

What is different between page navigation and URL ?
For example ,there are 2 pages , page1.jsp and page2.jsp .
User can go from page1 to page2 ?
I can use page naigation method to return to page2 or I put a image Hyperlink on page1 , the user click the hyperlink to go to page2.
I would like to know what is the different between two method ?
Thanks

Several components are action components. You can associate these components with action methods. When a user clicks on the action component the page is submitted to the server and the associated action method (if any) is called and the result of that action method (the return value) determines where to go next.
The hyperlink offers the option of a url or an action handler . If you specify an action handler then the hyperlink works like any action component, as described above.
However, if you specify a url instead, then the page is not submitted. The server simply serves up the page specified by the url.
Because the page is not submitted, no action methods or any other methods get invoked.
Have I explained that clearly?

JSF navigation rules sent me to different page, with same URL

Hello everybody,
Have a newbie question on JSF, if anyone can help me. I am using JSF for a web application, and i have a small problem.
If i define a navigation rule, from one page to another, and i am having a button that should send me to another page,
the browser URL remains the same, although the page content IS correctly changed.
Thanks,
Andrei

You're welcome.
Though I should have added that the advantage of the redirect after a POST request is that refreshing the request or navigating back and forward by browser history doesn't cause a re-submit of the POST request anymore. This way you avoid duplication of submitted data. This is called POST-redirect-GET pattern. Refreshing the request after a redirect (which is always a GET request) would only cause the redirect being refreshed, not the initiating POST request.
The disadvantage of a forward is less or more obvious: the URL remains the same and it is not really good for the user experience. If one copypasted the URL in a new window (a new GET request), one wouldn't see the forwarded page, but the originating page. That's why I would recommend to avoid navigation cases and just use the same page to postback the POST request to. For normal page-to-page navigation within a website, I would recommend just using outputlinks and not commandlinks with navigation cases. It's all better for the user experience.

Page navigation or Auto_incremental php url

I need a page navigation with links to first previous next and last i know that there is an option to add page navigation through dreamweaver from the inset data tab
But the problem is that when ever I add the navigation bar to the page and view it in the browser it gives an error with the number of the line which caused the error and when I view that line I find that the codes which were there are deleted.
the line actually contains some recordset codes which I can't remove as I have worked hard to make them do a specific thing.
So I decided to creat a navigation bar myself the and i made a url parameter to do that here it is
.index.php?categories_id=1&pageNum_Recordset1=1
this link causes the page to show the next set of posts but the problem is it just shows all the posts on the second page as the value of pageNum_Recordset1 on the first page is zero(0)
Now the portion in the red is the problem I want it to be auto_incremental such that the value of pageNum_Recordset1 should change from 1 to 2 to 3 and so on plz help I thins its qute easy but I m not getting it and I have tried my best to explain the problem but if u r not able to then let me know I will explain again.

Term-Driven Page with Friendly URL doesn't work with a page in another Site Collection

Hi all,
It appears that the Term-Driven Page with Friendly URL does not work when it is referencing a page in another Site Collection. When I set my Managed Navigation to use a term that points to another Site Collection page, the link shows in my navigation, but
gives the error:
"Sorry, something went wrong"
This does not happen if I link to a page in the same site.
Kelly
Personal Blog: http://thebitsthatbyte.com

i got similiar (i am not sure whether the same) issue recently:
I have a site collection (address http://spserver/) which use managed navigation, and term-driven page with friendly url. The address of the term-driven page is set as /pages/teamsitehome.aspx . A friendly url takes the form such as http://spserver/menulevel1/submenu1
I create a new site collection http://spserver/sites/newsitecollection and i want it to have the same navigation menu as the other site collection. Since i cannot use the same termset for the two site collection, i have to create a new term set
for the new site collection, "pin term with chidrem" or "reuse term" to the old term set. The friendly url in newly created site collection and term set takes the form such as http://spserver/sites/newsitecollection/menulevel1/submenu1, and still
points to /pages/teamsitehome.aspx. Notice that the term-driven page here in the new site collection still points to the old site collection.
Actually, it works! I mean, when i click the navigation menu, friendly url http://spserver/sites/newsitecollection/menulevel1/submenu1 appears in the browser address. And SharePoint knows to load /pages/teamsitehome.aspx for this url. If this is a simple
blank page, it just open fine here.
However, my custom page teamsitehome.aspx calls TaxonomyNavigationContext.Current.NavigationTerm in its page load event, it should returns a valid NavigationTerm for the friendly url. But it returns null here. I traced the code to find that it calles
internal static NavigationTerm GetNavigationTermFromTargetUrlGuids(SPWeb contextWeb, Guid termStoreId, Guid termSetId, Guid termId, bool includeInheritedSettings, bool enableExclusions)
The passed in contextWeb points to http://spserver/ , since the term-driven page is in this web. But the termSetId points to the new termset. TermId won't be problem, since its the same in both new and old term set for pinned term. The combination of contextWeb
and termSetId just make the output NavigationTerm null. I think its simply because the termset is not associated with this spweb.
My workaround is create a copy of /pages/teamsitehome.aspx in new site collection. The term-driven page address is set to ~sitecollection/pages/teamsitehome.aspx in term management. This time, all works. Just because the contextWeb parameter i mentioned
above now points to the root web at new site collection, where the term driven page resides.

JSF 2.0 page navigation vs direct page access

I've been experimenting with JSF for some time now and I still don't understand the page navigation part. I know that in JSF, if you aren't using the redirect option in navigation that the URL is one page behind the page you are on.
I've seen articles where people say you should put your pages in a directory under WEB-INF to protect against directly accessing the page. I don't understand how you can create an application that is multiple pages using that option, because won't you run into the problem of having a form with an action URL of WEB-INF/somepage.xhtml?
I've also read articles that say the way to fix this is to add security-constraints to web.xml that prevent "direct access" to pages, when you want your user to follow a page flow, such as start on page1.xhtml, then page2.xthml, then end on page2.xhtml. If page3.xhtml depends on page2.xhtml, the articles I've read say that a security constraint prevents users from simply requesting page3.xhtml out of sequence.
And what happens if the page you are on encounters an error or the session times out, which page handles that? The one you're on, or the one from before that forwarded you to the page you're on?
In this example, should page2.xhtml and page3.xhtml go in the root of the webapps directory, or in a directory under WEB-INF?
Webapps
index.xhtml
page1.xhtml
page2.xhtml
page3.xhtml
WEB-INF
    faces-config.xml
    web.xml
    page-directory
      page2.xhtml
      page3.xhtml

A session timeout should actually net a view expiry exception.
You do know that JSF 2.0 made page navigation that bit easier by not requiring you to do the XML configuration? There is now a convention built in plus some new components to add GET enabled requests to the JSF lifecycle (notably h:button and h:link). If you have an action method that returns the following:
public String doSomething(){
return "something";
}then JSF will by default want to render a view 'something.xhtml' when you don't define any navigation rules. If you want to make that a redirect you can do this:
public String doSomething(){
return "something?faces-redirect";
}(of course this is a prime target to turn into a utility method on a backing bean base class).
Navigation rules are still necessary when you want to put views in a subdirectory, but at least this way you can greatly simplify general cases. Other than that I can only say: research research research because this material is vital to understand if you want to be productive using the framework; navigation and the 6 JSF lifecycle phases are two items you should put on the top of your list to hammer out until you really get it. A good JSF book will help you immensely there. Balusc's blog is also a good source of deeper understanding:
http://balusc.blogspot.com/
Most of his articles are on JSF 1.2 but most of the information still applies.
Oh and its no surprise that you're a bit confused - this framework is not easy to pick up especially when you don't know any other web frameworks. If you keep running into a wall you should consider checking out something else like Wicket or Play framework. It might just be that JSF simply isn't the tool for the job you're trying to do.

Output_link and Page Navigation

Is it possible to use output_link with JSP Page Navigation Model? At first sight, the answer is no. The value attribute is mandatory and rendered into href attribute. So, I have to point to the next page directly, bypassing the Page Navigation Definition in faces-config.xml . It is not good, because it broken the concept of JSP Navigation mechanism. In other works, the Page Flow created based on faces-config.xml navigation rules will be uncompleted potentially. In turn, it reduces the value of modeling (in GUI tools) drastically.
If I am right, JSF misses the substitute for <h:command_link action="foo" immediate="false"> that works outside the form. I.e. something, that allows to involve Page Navigation, instead of avoiding it. (Something like <h:output_link action="foo">)

I guess, redefining nested place for command_link may be a critical changes in the current JSF RI implementation. Probably, it might be easier to do the following:
1. Add action attribute to the output_link
2. Make both value and action attributes optional
3. In case developer defines only value, the tag works as it works now (href=value)
4. In case developer defines only action, href = current_page_url + '?actionId='+action
in this way, the link works similar to command_link action="foo" immediate="true"
5. If developer defines both attributes then href=value + '?actionId=' + action
In this case, Navigation Model finds the defined page by URL and than makes a transfer according the defined action. BTW, such feature makes it possible to organize common starting points for Website menus which will be clearly presented in the application faces-config.

Page navigation problems

Hi all,
I am new to JSF, and I am trying to implement a simple page navigation which displays some values that the user entered. The values are stored in a managed bean. It's a simple login form. I am using NetBeans as my IDE. My page navigation is set up as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<faces-config version="1.2" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-facesconfig_1_2.xsd">
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/index.jsp</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>login</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/login.jsp</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
</faces-config>
And my JSF page is setup as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jsp:root version="1.2" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" xmlns:webuijsf="http://www.sun.com/webui/webuijsf">
<jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8"/>
<f:view>
<webuijsf:page binding="#{index.page1}" id="page1">
<webuijsf:html binding="#{index.html1}" id="html1">
<webuijsf:head binding="#{index.head1}" id="head1">
<webuijsf:link binding="#{index.link1}" id="link1" url="/resources/stylesheet.css"/>
</webuijsf:head>
<webuijsf:body binding="#{index.body1}" id="body1" style="-rave-layout: grid">
<webuijsf:form binding="#{index.form1}" id="form1">
<webuijsf:staticText binding="#{index.staticText1}" id="staticText1" style="position: absolute; left: 144px; top: 72px" text="Enter user name:"/>
<webuijsf:staticText binding="#{index.staticText2}" id="staticText2" text="Enter password:" />
<h:inputText binding="#{user.name}" id="txtUsername" />
<h:inputText binding="#{user.password}" id="txtPass" />
<h:commandButton action="login" binding="#{index.btnLogin}" id="btnLogin" value="Log in"/>
<h:inputText binding="#{index.txtUsername}" id="txtUsername"/>
<h:inputText binding="#{index.txtPass}" id="txtPass"/>
</webuijsf:form>
</webuijsf:body>
</webuijsf:html>
</webuijsf:page>
</f:view>
</jsp:root>
The web application compiles and deploys with no problem. However, when I click the btnSubmit button, it does not redirect me to the page specified in the faces-config.xml file. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for any help you can provide.

I'm not sure what you are trying to do here.
Are you trying to map the commandButton's action="login" to your rule <from-outcome>login</from-outcome>?
I think you want the commandButton to map to a method in your backing bean. E.g. action="#{bean.goToLogin}" .
The method goToLogin() should then return the string, "login" . This will be caught by your navigation rule <from-outcome>.
<from-outcome> maps to a specific string returned from a method called in that page.
But in this case if you just want redirection, it should be easier just an outputLink pointing to login.jsp.
Hope this helps!

Page Navigation Portlet issue

I am having an issue with a page navigation portlet. I am using adaptive tags and we have actually implemented one custom tag that outputs the current page id.
I will paste the code here. The issue is that in our portal the pages don't show up in the order we have set in community editor. They are showing up ordered by page id.
This is being done on 6.0 sp1.
Here is the code I am using.
<link type="text/css" href="pt://images/plumtree/common/custom/CIENA/PageNavStandard/MenuStyle.css" rel="StyleSheet" lang="en" />
<div id="PageNavStandard" xmlns:pt="http://www.plumtree.com/xmlschemas/ptui/">
<div id="PageNavStandardTitle">Navigation</div>
<pt:ptdata.currcommunitypagesdata pt:id="compages" />
     <ul id="MenuNav">
     <pt:logic.foreach pt:data="compages" pt:var="commpg">
               <li>
               <script>
                    var linkstr = "<pt:logic.value pt:value="$commpg.url" />";
                    var PageReg = new RegExp(/PageID=(\d*)\D/);
                    if(PageReg.exec("<pt:logic.value pt:value="$commpg.url" />")[1] == <pt:ciena.currpageid/>) {
                         document.write('<a href=" + linkstr + id="ActivePage" ">');
                    } else {
                         document.write('<a href=" + linkstr + ">');
                    document.write('<pt:logic.value pt:value="$commpg.title"/>');
                    document.write('</a>');
                    //document.write(PageReg.exec("<pt:logic.value pt:value="$commpg.url" />")[1]);
               </script> 
     </pt:logic.foreach>
     </ul>
</div></a>

That is most peculiar because we are doing a nearly identical page navigation portlet and we have the ability to shuffle the pages via the community object.
Are you using your code in publisher or in a custom portlet?
Perhaps you could try using this code in publisher and see if the results are returned appropriately:

Page Navigation portlet - 3.0.9

I want to create a page navigation portlet in 3.0.9, similar to that in 9.0.2.
How can this be done? I want the portlet to navigate between pages and sub pages and I do not want to use the nasty default navigation link that appears on sub-pages in 3.0.9.
I've looked at the wwpob_page$ table directly. This contains the hierarchy. WWSEC_SYS_PRIV$ contain the privilege info.
However, I need to be able to define the current page so that the SQL can identify what to display in the portlet.
How can you do this?
Cheers,
John

Hi,
You can get the page url in the additional plsql code section. You can just try printing htp.p(p_page_url) after publishing the component on a page.
Thanks,

Previous page navigation after on click of cancel button of a form in adf

Hi,
Can any one tell how previous page navigation works in adf?
I am working on a portal page which is having a common footer for all jspx pages.This footer contains a golink for feedback form.
so the problem is when I Navigate to any page (# page 1)and then Navigate to some other page (#page 2) and on click of Feedback link displayed on footer of page 2 Feedback form is displayed. and on Click of Cancel button of the form.
Expected Result:
User should be navigated to the page that they were on. (i.e., Page 2)
Actual Result:
User is navigated to page 1 instead of page 2
i.e it is taking browser previous url.
I am using the following code for the cancel button
<af:commandLink text="Cancel" id="cl5">
<af:clientListener method="goBack" type="click"/>
</af:commandLink>
java script....
function goBack()
window.history.back()

HtmlOutputLink and HTML 'in page' navigation

hi all;
i have a small problem. long message please be patient.
consider the following web application:
app/main.jsp
app/register/registration.jsp
app/.....
in the application view temaplate there is a marquee custom jsf component included on every page of the application. also in the main page, i navigate to the lower part of the page using the URL www.mysite.com/main.jsp#BUTTOM inside the marquee component.
the first page of the application is www.mysite.com/main.jsp
when moving to the registration page the address displayed on the top of the browser is www.mysite.com/main.jsp which is how JSF navigation works (displaying the last visited page address, not the current one).
the problem is that after moving to the registration page and then trying to click on the marquee component link to www.mysite.com/main.jsp#BUTTOM, nothing happens, just the address on the browser changes from www.mysite.com/main.jsp to www.mysite.com/main.jsp#BUTTOM, but no action happens on the server and the page displayed stays the registration page. this happens only when clicking the marquee link from resources that reside on nested folders! (not directry under the root).
is this a bug or a regular behaviour?
i think i can solve the problem using <redirect> on the navigation but are there alternatives?

Can't you use relative address rather than the full address? i.e. try using just #BUTTOM instead of the full url with #BUTTOM appended.
Mike.

CrystalReportViewer page navigation re-hash

Hi Everyone,
I've been searching for a solution to the widely discussed page navigation problem when you place all your report binding code in Page_Load(). Lots of references are to older versions of VS and CR so they don't quite fit. I am running VS2008 and CR2008. Here's what I've done so far.
Added an OnInit parameter to point to my initialization routine:
<CR:CrystalReportViewer ID="CrystalReportViewer1" runat="server" AutoDataBind="true" DisplayGroupTree="False" EnableDatabaseLogonPrompt="False" EnableParameterPrompt="False"
OnInit="InitMyReport"/>
Moved my report binding code from Page_Load to InitMyReport(). The issue I am having is that the paramaters that are being passed via the URL (and fetched via request.querystring("id1")) are not available during the initialization phase so I can't set them.
Where did I run astray?
Dave

OK - I figured this out.
First I took all of the report setup code (parameter and selection formula assignment) and put it into its own subroutine called ReportSetup(). This is called only once from page_load as I am checking for postback.
Next I added a new subroutine called ReportNavigate() to fire when the viewer navigate event is triggered. This simply calles ReportSetup() which rebinds the report correctly.
Simple solution.

Firefox 6.+ the navigation toolbar url almost always says "go to website" instead of the site that is showing. can i get back the old way or is it an add-on...???

my navigation bar url area almost always shows "go to this website" instead of the page i am on. can i get the old way back...???

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Page navigation same portal different portlet applications

Hello OTN,
I have a question regarding the best way to perform page navigation using the ActionResponse.sendRedirect method.
There is one Webcenter Portal, and in it are multiple pages. Each page has portlets from different 286 PortletProducer applications.
I can copy the url out of the browser and remove the params, and use that string in my controller to redirect me successfully to the home page of the portal.
However that URL does not reference a non-home page, i.e. one not hooked up to Root.
I tried constructing the page url by appending the path from pages.xml to the portal context, but got no love from that either.
If i want to redirect to a different page, what is the best way to specify the page so I can use the sendRedirect method?
Thanks,
PowerUser 862605

if you use sendRedirect method ,then make sure the following conditions are satisfied.
This method only accepts an absolute URL (e.g. http://my.co/myportal/mywebap/myfolder/myresource.gif) or a full path URI (e.g. /myportal/mywebap/myfolder/myresource.gif). If required, the portlet container may encode the given URL before the redirection is issued to the client.
some good examples are her -http://www.javadocexamples.com/javax/portlet/ActionResponse/sendRedirect%28String%20location%29.html
Personally , I haven't checked it .so try this and see what's the results is .

Page navigation - current page loss

Hi All,
I have a page navigation logic block atm.
I'm outputting a maximum of 6 records per page (videos). I have set up startrow and endrow. When the user clicks next page and selects a video to play it reverts back to the first page (does play the right video though).
Heres the page:
http://www.ukagriculture.com/multimedia/farming_pictures.cfm?strVidSubCategory=Forage%20cr ops&strClient_Name_UKA=&strVidCategory=Videos&multimedia=no
query code:
<CFQUERY NAME="GetVids" DATASOURCE="">
SELECT * FROM videos_table WHERE strVidSubCategory = '#URL.strVidSubCategory#'
ORDER BY strOrder_id
</CFQUERY>
<CFIF #ParameterExists(StartRow)# IS "No">
<CFSET StartRow = 1>
<CFELSE>
<CFSET StartRow = (StartRow + 6)>
</CFIF>
<CFSet EndRow = StartRow + 5>
<CFIf EndRow GT GetVids.RecordCount>
<CFSet EndRow = GetVids.RecordCount>
</CFIf>
output navigation code:
<cfoutput query="GetVids" STARTROW=#StartRow# MAXROWS=6>
<CFIF LEN(strDescription) gt 40>
<CFSET desctrunc = LEFT(strDescription,40)>
<cfelse>
<CFSET desctrunc = strDescription>
</CFIF>
<div id="vidthumb1">
<a href="farming_pictures.cfm?strVidSubCategory=#URLEncodedFormat(strVidSubCategory)#&strCli ent_Name_UKA=#URLEncodedFormat(strClient_Name_UKA)#&strVidCategory=#strVidCategory#&multim edia=no&strFlashVideo=#strFlashVideo#"><img src="mm_videos/#strImage#" alt="" width="100" height="90" class="handcursor" border="0">
</a>
<br />
<span class="thumbtext">#desctrunc#</span></div>
</cfoutput>
<cfoutput>
<p align="center">Displaying video<cfif GetVids.RecordCount EQ '1'><cfelse>s</cfif> #StartRow# to #EndRow# <cfif (StartRow + 5) LT GetVids.RecordCount><a href="farming_pictures.cfm?StartRow=#StartRow#&strVidSubCategory=#URLEncodedFormat(strVid SubCategory)#&strClient_Name_UKA=#URLEncodedFormat(strClient_Name_UKA)#&strVidCategory=#st rVidCategory#&multimedia=no">next page>></a></p></cfif>
</cfoutput>
I would like to retain the current page the user is on when they select a video from the 2nd/3rd/4th pages etc..
TIA
Trevor

Trevor,
Would incorporating the URL key/value pair for StartRow=#StartRow#& to the first link in your output do the trick?
