I was wondering if this is possible. I have a login form that receives an ID and password from a user. If it checks out in the backend, another form is revealed. So far I am actually sending the login details to another xhtml page to be processed. However, if the user is wrong, the page still shows.
This is my code
Index.xhtml
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html">
<h:head>
<title>Index</title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:form>
<p>Login</p>
<h:inputText value="#{jsfbean.username}"/>
<h:inputText value="#{jsfbean.password}"/>
<h:commandButton action="#{jsfbean.message}" value="Results Page"/>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
Navigation rule
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

jsf bean
public String getMessage() {
if(getUser(this.username,this.password)==true){
this.userID = aUser.getUserid();
this.secqn = aUser.getSecqn();
this.secans = aUser.getSecans();
return "Success";
}else{
return "Fail";
}
}
