Thanks again, Pete. Some details are clearer now. Overall we're still turning around in cycles. An initial requirement was: Employee list should only be refreshed when clicking on the "Employees" header. If I don't immediately start a conversation then each single employee selection will reload the list, right? I I do immediately start a conversation I don't know where to end it. Also I still don't see how selecting an employee from the list can continue in the same conversation when opened in the same browser tab and can start a new conversation when opened in a new browser tab. How does the "natural conversation id" deal with multiple tabs? I might specify a specific conversation id for editing employees. Does it get some kind of suffix when I open several employee areas in multiple tabs? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4085452#...
