It is possible to redirect to two different pages in pages.xml?

mi question is based in redirecting to one page or another according to a value passed by URL in SEAM. For example: I have this link that passes some parameters in URL:

http://localhost:8080/Refund/home.seam?user=012012&name=john&auth_level=4

in the seam pages.xml file, i have this configuration:

<page view-id="/home.xhtml" >
    <action if="#{authenticator.limpiar}" execute="#{identity.login}"  />
                <param name="user" value="#{user.number}" />
                <param name="name" value="#{user.name}" />
                <param name="auth_level" value="#{user.authLevel}" />

    <navigation from-action="#{identity.login}" >
            <rule if="#{identity.loggedIn}" >
                    <redirect view-id="/pages/page1.xhtml" />
            </rule>
            <rule if="#{not identity.loggedIn}">
                    <redirect view-id="/errorLogin.xhtml"/>
            </rule>
    </navigation>
</page>

but now i have another parameter to add to this URL. this parameter is "emp_id" and could take the value 1 or 15. so the url now is:

http://localhost:8080/Refund/home.seam?user=012012&name=john&auth_level=4&emp_id=X where X can take 1 or 15.

depending on what number takes, it must redirect to a one page or another (page1.xhtml or page2.xhtml), but i cant figure out how to do this in the pages.xml file.

please can anyone give some trick to do this? or another solution?

THANKS!!!!!

This should be possible if you assign the parameter to a param first. Try this:

<page view-id="/home.xhtml" >
    <action if="#{authenticator.limpiar}" execute="#{identity.login}"  />
                <param name="user" value="#{user.number}" />
                <param name="name" value="#{user.name}" />
                <param name="auth_level" value="#{user.authLevel}" />
    <param name="emp_id" value="#{somebean.emp_id}"/>
    <navigation from-action="#{identity.login}" >
            <rule if="#{identity.loggedIn}" >
                    <redirect view-id="/pages/page1.xhtml" />
            </rule>
            <rule if="#{not identity.loggedIn}">
                    <redirect view-id="/errorLogin.xhtml"/>
            </rule>
            <rule if="#{somebean.emp_id eq '1'}"><!-- use eq if emp_id is a string -->
                    <redirect view-id="/yourview.xhtml"/>
            </rule>
    </navigation>
</page>

I think I used something similiar once, but don't have a setup now to test it. I do, however, think that you should consider something else, like redirecting to a view, passing emp_id as a parameter and then using rewrite rules to make a nice url.

You can always execute a custom action (es. execute="#{redirectAction.go}") and manually redirect users. In seam way:

 Redirect redirect = Redirect.getInstance();
 redirect.setViewId("...")

In standard way:

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().redirect("...");
