                 Key: JBIDE-4936
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4936
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Visual Page Editor core
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0.M4
            Reporter: Yura Zhishko
            Assignee: Maxim Areshkau


As a new Feature for VPE I propose to make a support for static navigation. A simple example can be founded in JSF 1.2 Kick Start project.

1) Open inputUserName.jsp
2) One click on button Say Hello on the visual pane

Static navigation assumes, when we make a click on this button, hello.jsp page should be opened with JBT editor, as the navigation-rule describes this in faces-config.xml:

<navigation-rule>
  <from-view-id>/pages/inputUserName.jsp</from-view-id>
  <navigation-case>
   <from-outcome>hello</from-outcome>
   <to-view-id>/pages/hello.jsp</to-view-id>
  </navigation-case>
 </navigation-rule>

The utility of this feature is that the user can see the result of clicking on this button is some cases (the page that will be opened, when he(she) clicks on button). Plus, there is faster navigation.
