I have a parent page and an iframe. When the user clicks on a link on the parent, it loads up in iframe. But the content in iframe doesn't change immediately when you click the link. The old content remains for few seconds until a network request is initiated, and then DOM is wiped up and repopulated with the new content.
What I need is, as soon as the user clicks the link, DOM is wiped off and then content is loaded. I don't want the user to see the old page even for few seconds after the link is clicked.
This problem is solved in a hackyway
iframeObj.contentWindow.document.write('')

I want to go previous page when the user clicks on the browser back button. When I navigate another page, I can not go to the last page by using the browser back button. So, can anyone help me find a solution to this problem?
Ensure that every state that you want to show up in next/back is differentiated by a route change navigated to by NavigationManager.
If you make a page /somePage and you let the user step through several choices, and then the user navigates (using the URL bar) then hits the back button on the browser, they will go back to /somePage and not back to the choices they made.
If you make a page /somePage and each time the user makes a choice they are navigated to a new page using NavigationManager, for example /somePage/someSelection, then when they hit back they will go back to /somePage/someSelection. This requires you to load data on subpage choices on init based on optional page route parameters, but the tradeoff is having browser navigations that are part of next/back.
I have a VC++ MFC dialog application with a web browser ActiveX control. I have "Next" and "Prev" buttons using which I let the user navigate through a list of pre-defined URLs, whose content are shown in the web browser control. Since I know the list of URLs at the start itself, I would like to pre-load the content in some way while the user is looking at one page, so that when they click on "Next", the content has already been fetched and can be shown to the user instead of waiting for the page to load. I did not find any documentation on how to do that so far. Does anyone have any ideas on how to achieve this? I was thinking of having a second invisible web browser control where I pre-load the next URL, but it would be tricky to handle the user clicking Next when the next URL is still loading in the other browser.
Whenever browser back is clicked, it must not navigate to the previous page but to some default page. how is it done using JSF ?
Clicking on browser back button requests the result page from the browser cache.
This is a client side activity. It doesn't send request to your server for fetching some default page(in your case).
Please refer this post for writing a filter indicating the browser not to cache dynamic JSF pages.
And also you can refer this one for more details.
You can try to detect if User has clicked on browser back button by writing client side code.
Refer this post for detecting back button click.
If you are trying to alter the behaviour of browser back button, it indicates some kind of flaw in your application.
Is there a way to reset the view of a page in JSF?
I have a page to upload files and it keeps filling a table with the files the user wants to submit, once the user clicks on submit I want the page to be in the initial state as if it was the first time the user visited it.
Hope I explain myself correctly.
Well after searching and thinking a bit, I think I got it.
Just in the action attribute of the submit button redirect the page to the same page, this will cause to create a new view of the same page.
I'm trying to find a clean way so that the login and logout pages for my liferay portal aren't shown in my menu. For the login page I guess I could move the user to the private pages section but I have no clue how I can make the logout landing page not visible. And preferably the logout page would only be navigable to when you're effectively logged out so users can't accidentally go to it when they've got the url cached in their browser.
Any input would be appreciated.
Regarding hiding the landing pages: Just create them and check "hidden" in "Manage Page" for that page. This will make the page accessible according to the permissions, but hide it in the navigation - e.g. if you know the page's name, you can go there - just as you requested.
If you display the currently logged in user on the logout landing page (e.g. through the "Sign In" portlet, you don't need to display a message like "you've been logged out", but display the current state of the user's session.
Of course you're free to not use the Sign-In opportunity on that page, in this case you'll have to display the current session state in a different portlet. It could be as simple as a templated WebContent portlet, accessing the currently logged in user.
Edit: If you set default.logout.page.path=/web/guest/logout and auth.forward.by.last.path=true but you're still not redirected on logout, chances are that changes made through the UI override your portal-ext.properties. If you've edited "Settings" in ControlPanel, this is most likely the case. You can set these values there, on the first page in settings.
As noted in your comment: You cannot make the first page hidden. This shouldn't be a problem: Just make any other page hidden. Even if you don't have more public content than this, you can have at least a public page stating that you need to login. Make this the first, so the logout page can be either a child page of this or a new toplevel page - but most importantly: It can be hidden.
