Use <f:viewAction> to trigger a bean method before rendering of the view and simply return a navigation outcome (which will implicitly be treated as a redirect). E.g. <f:metadata> <f:viewParam name=”token” value=”#{authenticator.token}” /> <f:viewAction action=”#{authenticator.check}” /> </f:metadata> with @ManagedBean @RequestScoped public class Authenticator { private String token; public String check() { return isValid(token) ? null : … Read more

I use a List of NameValuePair and URLEncodedUtils to create the url string I want. protected String addLocationToUrl(String url){ if(!url.endsWith(“?”)) url += “?”; List<NameValuePair> params = new LinkedList<NameValuePair>(); if (lat != 0.0 && lon != 0.0){ params.add(new BasicNameValuePair(“lat”, String.valueOf(lat))); params.add(new BasicNameValuePair(“lon”, String.valueOf(lon))); } if (address != null && address.getPostalCode() != null) params.add(new BasicNameValuePair(“postalCode”, address.getPostalCode())); if … Read more
Not in the RFC, no, but there are practical limits. The HTTP protocol does not place any a priori limit on the length of a URI. Servers MUST be able to handle the URI of any resource they serve, and SHOULD be able to handle URIs of unbounded length if they provide GET-based forms that … Read more
Isn’t that what hidden parameters are for to start with…? <form action=”http://www.example.com” method=”GET”> <input type=”hidden” name=”a” value=”1″ /> <input type=”hidden” name=”b” value=”2″ /> <input type=”hidden” name=”c” value=”3″ /> <input type=”submit” /> </form> I wouldn’t count on any browser retaining any existing query string in the action URL. As the specifications (RFC1866, page 46; HTML 4.x … Read more
