Partial Page Navigation in Oracle ADF

Question

Hi!
I am looking for a solution in Oracle ADF for rendering different page content inside the current page defined layout using AJAX. Currently on command button i am able to send XMLHttpRequest but it is going to another page rather than rendering the other page content on the current page.
my index page code is:-
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich">
<jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
<f:view>
<af:document id="d1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_index.d1}">
<af:form id="f1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_index.f1}">
<af:commandButton text="Go"
binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_index.cb1}"
id="cb1"
action="#{backingBeanScope.backing_index.cb1_action}"
partialSubmit="true"/>
<af:panelFormLayout id="pfl1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_index.pfl1}" partialTriggers="cb1"
inlineStyle="height:403px;">
<af:outputFormatted value="this is index page, click go button to go to home page" id="of1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_index.of1}"/>
</af:panelFormLayout>
</af:form>
</af:document>
</f:view>
<!--oracle-jdev-comment:auto-binding-backing-bean-name:backing_index-->
</jsp:root>
my home page is:-
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich">
<jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
<f:view>
<af:document id="d1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_home.d1}">
<af:outputFormatted value="welcome to CAP" id="of1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_home.of1}"/>
</af:document>
</f:view>
<!--oracle-jdev-comment:auto-binding-backing-bean-name:backing_home-->
</jsp:root>
my adfc-config code is:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<adfc-config xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller" version="1.2">
<view id="home">
<page>/home.jspx</page>
</view>
<view id="index">
<page>/index.jspx</page>
</view>
<control-flow-rule id="__9">
<from-activity-id id="__10">index</from-activity-id>
<control-flow-case id="__11">
<from-outcome id="__13">success</from-outcome>
<to-activity-id id="__12">home</to-activity-id>
</control-flow-case>
</control-flow-rule>
<managed-bean id="__1">
<managed-bean-name id="__3">backing_index</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class id="__4">view.backing.Index</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope id="__2">backingBean</managed-bean-scope>
<!--oracle-jdev-comment:managed-bean-jsp-link:1index.jspx-->
</managed-bean>
<managed-bean id="__6">
<managed-bean-name id="__8">backing_home</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class id="__5">view.backing.Home</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope id="__7">backingBean</managed-bean-scope>
<!--oracle-jdev-comment:managed-bean-jsp-link:1home.jspx-->
</managed-bean>
</adfc-config>
Thank you in advance

Hi.
You can do it using ADF TaskFlows,Create two page fragments as index.jsff and home.jsff.Also need to create container page(.jspx) to add taskflow and finally need to run Content page.Then you can navigates page fragments within taskflow using controle flow case(navigation between page fragments).
