How to stop calling action/actionListener/onclick/oncomplete while page is refresh

Question

While page is reload, keep calling action method.

I only want to call this action method when link is clicked.

<li role="presentation">
    <a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="ViewAMC.xhtml" action="#       {treeTableManagedBean.testingActionListener()}" >View AMC</a>
</li>

public void testingActionListener()
{
    System.out.println("testing action listener!");
    flag = false;
}

Where did you learn you can add an `action` like this to a plain `` tag like this? This is just not supported and the duplicates of 'why is this action called on page load all apply here. — Kukeltje, Jun 14 '16 at 07:25

@Holger: OP does **not** want the method to be called on pageload — Kukeltje, Jun 14 '16 at 08:39
That is why I commented. Using `f:viewAction` was a wrong suggestion. @Holger misinterpreted the question I think. The duplicate contains the right answer and explanation. The answer below is 'right' as well, but lacks detail and should not be accepted in my opinion — Kukeltje, Jun 14 '16 at 09:02
i learn and tried from duplicate question, but still have problem. I cannot redirect my target page and still reload in current page. I tried like that return "/ViewAMC?faces-redirect=true"; — Alice, Jun 14 '16 at 09:52
I just started learn about jsf. how to redirect my target page. this page is under 'WebContent/JSF/ViewAMC.xhtml'. — Alice, Jun 14 '16 at 09:53

<h:commandLink action="#{treeTableManagedBean.testingAction()}"  value="Click Here" actionListener="#{treeTableManagedBean.myActionListener}">


    public void myActionListener(ActionEvent event) {
        System.out.println("testing action listener!");
    }


    public String testingAction() {
        System.out.println("testing action !");
        return "ViewAMC.xhtml";
    }

Try this out.

cannot redirect mypage like that. – Alice Jun 14 '16 at 08:13
While this may answer the question, it is 1: Better to search if duplicates of something exist and refer to those. 2: Add some explanation on why this code is better then the original code. – Kukeltje Jun 14 '16 at 08:41
