JSF page redirecting from java bean

by

Not sure what you’re after, but the ExternalContext#dispatch() does only a forward, not a redirect. You’d like to use ExternalContext#redirect() instead.

externalContext.redirect("foo.xhtml");

or even external (which is not possible with dispatch)

externalContext.redirect("http://stackoverflow.com");

You’d normally like to do this in bean’s action method.

Since you mentioned JavaScript in the comments, here’s how you could redirect using JS:

window.location = "foo.xhtml";
// Or
window.location = "http://stackoverflow.com";
