Are all "GET" requests to JSF "Initial Request"s?

In JSF 1.1, I am assuming that GET requests are treated as initial requests (resulting in the creation of a new view), and POST requests are treated as Postbacks (resulting in the restoration of the old view).

However, my application is behaving differently - it restores the same old view even for GET requests. Why does this happen? Is there a way to force the creation of a new view for GET requests?

(My state-saving method is 'server'. I'm using MyFaces with JSP, and I have a t:saveState on a managed bean in the view)

Regards,

Pradyumna

What you describes is indeed true for legacy JSF 1.0/1.1 and has been improved ("fixed") in JSF 1.2.

JSF 1.2 is already there since early 2006 (>4 years ago). Why don't you upgrade?
