Whole Page Refreshes while Navigating between Pages

Sashank Pappu

Hi ,

I am using Jdev 11.1.1.6 and I tried to implement a custom template with custom navigation in the template. Below are the details :

1) Created a Template with navigation links on the left side .
2) Added the Default Navgation links as follows :

*<af:forEach var="node" varStatus="vs"*

*items="#{navigationContext.defaultNavigationModel.listModel['startNode=/, includeStartNode=false']}">*

*<af:goLink id="pt_gl1" text="#{node.title}"*

*destination="#{node.goLinkPrettyUrl}"*

*targetFrame="#{node.attributes['Target']}"*

*inlineStyle="font-size:small;#{node.selected ? 'font-weight:bold;' : ''}"/>*

*<af:spacer id="sp1" width="20px"/>*

*</af:forEach>*

3) I was able to display the content and the links and all the links are displaying the corresponding data in the content facet .

But when I click on any of the links the whole page is refreshing. Could you please let me know how can i make only the facet to refresh instead of whole page .

Thank you,
Sashank P

It's normal that when you are using an af:goLink the entire page is refreshing. An af:goLink is just a normal hyperlink.
That is normally the recommended case for a portal where you want robots to index your portal properly.

If you really want to use PPR you have to use a commandButton instead. There is an example of that code in the normal portal template when you create a new webcenter portal application. Just copy that part and you should be fine.
