How to call managed bean in h:outputLink when opening new page

I have a h:outputLink which opens new JSF page and sends h:param.

<h:outputLink id="lnkHidden" action="#{HistoryLinkController.linkValue("test")}" value="HistoryLink.xhtml" style="display:none">
<f:param name="id" value="#{item.aSessionID}" />
</h:outputLink>

I want when I click it to send a value to a second managed bean. I tried to implement it with action="#{HistoryLinkController.linkValue("test")}" but I get error. Is there any attribute that I can use for this purpose?

Try using a <h:commandLink> in the following way and it should work fine

<h:commandLink id="hLink" value="History" action="#{HistoryLinkController.linkValue}" >         
 <f:param name="sessID" value="#{item.aSessionID}" />
</h:commandLink>

and the bean "HistoryLinkController" should have a method like 

public String linkValue(){
   // get "sessID" from FacesContext
   ...
   return "/HistoryLink.xhtml";
}

Replace h:outputLink into h:commandLink.

I have also tried to navigate to some view along with passing a value to another bean already but I didn't get it. But what I got is---
U can remain in the same bean class if possible, and use navigation rules in faces-config.xml for navigating to another page.

And In ajax, action will be called earlier than its actionListener.

Hope it helps you finding a way...
