Re: Intercepting the request

If the problem is only that you do not want to display the
log field at 
same time, you can put the log field entry in a section that
is only 
"rendered" after data are validated. It's still
the same "view" but user 
now only see the log fields.


Another possibility,  with one page for each data set but
only one log page

page1: fill  data change
page 1 action : store in session bean a "request for
change objet" (can 
even be your action bean itself :p)
navigate to logEntry
logEntry: fill log informaton
logEntry action: store log informations, execute the
"request for 
change" object you stored

If you want to intercept various steps of JSF lifecycle,
this can be 
done with a phase listener. However,while phase listener can
be great as 
a monitoring tool or to handle special query parameter as
initialisation 
stuff for beans, it can become a mess if you use it to delay
actions.
