Hi all,

Just a quickie...

I want to return the same page a user is viewing after he clicks a directAction.

Why a direct action? If the page is the result of a component action, why not use a component action.


Specifically I'm talking about a language switch link in the pageWrapper to change languages. I want a simple url like http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/App.woa/wa/English

What I'm doing atm is adding a link with the following binding:

LanguageLink : WOHyperlink {
        directActionName = aLanguage;
        ?contextID = context.contextID;
}


And then in my DirectAction.class I'm intercepting it with:

public WOActionResults performActionNamed(String anActionName) {
  ...

  // Do the language switching here

  ...

  String stringContextID = (String)req.formValueForKey("contextID");
  return s.restorePageForContextID(stringContextID);
}


This mostly works... but sometimes I get errors since for no apparent reason the WOHyperlink does not include the ?contextID thing sometimes.
Am I doing it correctly?

I just want the equivalent of returning null on a component based action.


I'd look in the headers for the referrer URL and use a WORedirect to that.
