title: How do I send an object to a JSF page?
body: <p>Each row in the table below represents an Auction. For each Auction there are a number of Offers (so a <code>@ManyToOne</code> relationship between <strong>Offers</strong> and <strong>Auctions</strong>).</p>
  
  <p>The blue button means <strong>"Add Offer"</strong>. When the user clicks "Add Offer" I want to open a form (in a new page) that the user fills in order to add an offer <strong>to the correspondng auction</strong>.</p>
  
  <p><strong>How do I send the current row Auction object to the Add Offer .xhtml form?</strong></p>
  
  <p>In PHP for example I would just send the corresponding Auction ID in the URL (the button would be a link <code>&lt;a href='add_offer?auction_id=123' role='button'&gt;</code>, and then I would use <code>$_GET['auction_id']</code> to retrieve the corresponding auction's id).</p>
