Question

I have a JSF Portlet which has user form in the view JSP. The requirement is whenever i click on the theme navigation menu, a new form needs to be displayed to the user. But the problem is whenever i click on the menu, the values are getting retained. Please suggest how to the remove/re-initialize the backing bean on click of theme navigation.

Thanks, Raj

I did a workaround by adding a queryString parameter to the navigation URL generation (since we are using custome themes) and in my doView i am checking for the parameter and if its not NULL, then display a fresh form. Hope it helps
