You can put any values that you want to maintain in the pageFlowScope and in your getter for that value, check to see if it exists in pageFlowScope first, and if it does, return that value rather than the initialized value when the bean is created.

I guess that makes sense... the extra submit is an extra request. First, am I correct? Second, does that mean that every bean backing a page that uses autoSubmit (I use it a lot) needs to be session scope? That brings its own problems. Perhaps there is another option? I even saw Oracle documentation saying that "page backing beans are usually request scope", but alas, they cannot be! Any help is appreciated. Dan
