Thanks Myke but I'm using myfaces tomahawk, not richfaces. I also tried a more simple code:
In the JSP: <h:commandButton value="seleccionar" actionListener="#{VisitaDomiciliarBean.seleccionar}" id="seleccionarLink" style="display:none"> *<f:param name="booleanActividad" value="** true"/>* </h:commandButton> In the BackingBean: FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); String paramVaule = (String)context.getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap().get("* booleanActividad*"); System.out.println(paramVaule);-----> null But it returns null, what I'm missing?
