[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-274?page=comments#action_12365158 ] Jonas Erma commented on JBSEAM-274: ----------------------------------- I've had a very time consuming experience with tuckey.org URLRewriteFilter and it still doesn't work for me. The problem is that I can't get Ajax4JSF working when I use forwarding (instead of redirecting) and define outbound-rules. Rewrite rules that Christian has in his wiki are simple and work perfectly. I want that not only incoming URLs are rewritten but also the outgoing ones in my pages. Everything works until an ajax event is fired (e.g. for input validation). Then the ajax response comes with wrong content-type and with missing XML preamble, which causes Ajax4JSF to complain. I tried to correct this by writing a filter for ajax responses. The filter corrects the content-type and adds the missing XML preamble to the response. But this time the response is not valid XML anymore. Although my Facelet sources have the XML entity   for non-breaking spaces, they are somehow converted to HTML   in the response. The logical next step for me would be to transform the response to valid XML in the filter but I'm not sure if my approach is the write one. I would prefer having a Seam solution for URL rewriting working nicely with pages.xml.
