This behavior is correct. Page2 is attach to the request because of the PageLink component.
The PageLink component (or rather, the LinkFactory service behind the scenes) obtains an instance of Page2 so that it can fire the "passivate" event on it. http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/tapestry-core/guide/pagenav.html On 6/13/07, tovarisch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi all, I'm using 5.0.4, I have two pages, Page1 and Page2, similar to this: Page1.html <html xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd"; > <head><title>Page 1</title></head> <body> <t:pagelink page="page2">Page 2</t:pagelink> </body> </html> Page2.html <html xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd"; > <head><title>Page 2</title></head> <body> <t:pagelink page="page1">Page 1</t:pagelink> </body> </html> where both pageAttached() and pageDetached() just log the call. When Page1 is just loaded, the log is: Page1.pageAttached Page2.pageAttached Page1.pageDetached Page2.pageDetached Why is Page2 attached to the request? If I have a menu with some pagelinks, all of them are being attached and detached every call. If this behavior is correct, where is the place to load database content to show in a page? If the page has a form, onPrepare() does the work, but what about a page with no form and no context? Is onActivate() the method I'm looking for?
