Hi I have a small problem which I'm trying to figure out the best solution to.
We have a portal (Weblogic 10) which has different desktops (portal files) for different operational phases, as the available content differs greatly from phase to phase. The majority of our portlets are JSF portlets. In the header of each portal desktop there is a JSF portlet which can be used to select the date to be shown and therefore the phase and desktop to be shown. I have a method on a managed bean which can identify which desktop has to be shown, but using this within the JSF context to navigate to a different portal desktop is not going to work. The problem is how do I forward to the new desktop from within the portlet which is in the action part of its JSF life cycle? I can't use the standard JSF navigation as this would only apply to the contents of the portlet and not of the portal as a whole. I have a nasty feeling I will have to put a filter in and check the selected date before I display the desktop. This will mean rooting around in the URL which is sent when the form containing the date selection is submitted. Before I do this I was just wondering if anyone else had a more elegant solution.
