Re-intializing a .JSPX pagedef variable iterator value?

Question

I am using ExecuteWithParams operation to create an ADF parameter (search) form on a .jspx page. By default, the attributes reference a variable iterator which are stored in the request scope (see excerpt from developer's guide below). I can save the inputvalue from the parameter form to a processScope variable by using a setActionListener that is fired when the user presses the commandButton. However, how can I re-intialize the inuptvalue on the search form (using the value saved to the processScope variable) when the .jspx page is re-loaded?
-------------- code snippets --------------------------------------
// search.jspx page - inputvalue on search form
<af:inputText value="#{bindings.keywords.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.keywords.label}">
<af:validator binding="#{bindings.keywords.validator}"/>
</af:inputText>
// search.jspx page - setActionListener to save inputValue to processScope
af:commandButton actionListener="#{bindings.FindMethod.execute}"
text="Search">
<af:setActionListener from="#{bindings.keywords.inputValue}"
to="#{processScope.keywords}"/>
</af:commandButton>
// searchPageDef.xml - variable iterator used to store variables for ADF parameter form
<executables>...........
<variableIterator id="variables">
<variable Type="java.lang.String" Name="FindMethod_keywords"
IsQueriable="false"/>
</variableIterator>
<bindings>......
<methodAction id="FindMethod" MethodName="FindMethod
RequiresUpdateModel="true" Action="999"
DataControl="SearchServiceDataControl"
InstanceName="SearchServiceDataControl.dataProvider">
<NamedData NDName="keywords" NDType="java.lang.String"
NDValue="${bindings.FindMethod_keywords}"/>
</methodAction>
<attributeValues id="keywords" IterBinding="variables">
<AttrNames>
<Item Value="FindMethod_keywords"/>
</AttrNames>
</attributeValues>

Because you dropped the ExecuteWithParams operation, the attributes reference a
variable iterator that accesses the variables instead of a collection’s iterator. This is
because the operation (unlike the returned collection) does not need to access an
instance of an object; therefore, there is nothing to hold the values entered on the page.
Variables act as these data holders.
JDeveloper creates a variable for each named bind variable. The variables are declared
as children to the variable iterator, and are local, meaning they live only during a
single request, and while they are carried across subsequent post-backs to the same
form, they would be forgotten (and re-initialized) when a user navigates to some other
page.

Thanks for the reply, er, I mean code sample! This does the trick and was what I was looking for.
However, it does seem to have a side effect that has created another issue that I posted in a separate thread:
af:inputText value fields refreshed when a backing bean is used for value?
