1.i had a application which is runing well when i am using the faces-config.xml, for example the login page: <navigation-rule> <from-view-id>/pages/input/login.jsp</from-view-id> <navigation-case> <from-outcome>login_success</from-outcome> <to-view-id>/pages/input/mainpage.jsp</to-view-id> </navigation-case> <navigation-case> <from-outcome>login_failure</from-outcome> <to-view-id>/pages/input/login.jsp</to-view-id> </navigation-case> </navigation-rule> 2.Now i want to use the seam 1.2 page navigation ability : so i migrate the navigation to the pages.xml: <page view-id="/pages/input/login.jsp"> <rule if-outcome="login_success"> <redirect view-id="/pages/input/mainpage.jsp" /> <rule if-outcome="login_failure"> <redirect view-id="/pages/input/login.jsp" /> 3.The problem is i can't show the wrong messages when i migrated into pages.xml. the codes to deal with the messages in the managed bean are if (!user.getPassword().equals(this.getPassword())) { facesMessages.addToControlFromResourceBundle("loginForm:password", FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR, "login_password_is_not_correct"); return "login_failure"; } "loginForm:password" means that i have a form called "loginForm" and a field called "password" in the jsp page. So how to show the wrong messages in the web page if i choose to use seam navigation? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4036597#...
