Problem With Page Redirecting Using Param To Pass Parameter

I get a consistant error message when I try and use a commandlink action to assign a value to pass to a new page.  In the controller, the Param value and assignTo both show the value is passed to the controller and the PageReference  populate correctly based on my TestMethod.  However, when the commandlink is executed on the live data, the URL has the variable name of the "value=" populate the URL, i.e. {!uu.id}.

 

ERROR MESSAGE: Id value {uu.id} is not valid for the User standard controller URL: https://c.na3.visual.force.com/apex/forecastquota?id={uu.id} PORTIONS OF CONTROLLER WITH DIFFERENT OPTIONS TRIED: public PageReference UserSelected () { String s = apexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('UserId'); PageReference retPage = new PageReference ('/apex/forecastquota?id=' + s); OR PageReference retPage = new PageReference ('/apex/forecastquota?id=' + SelectedUserId); OR PageReference retPage = Page.forecastquota; retPage.getParameters().put('Id',SelectedUserId); OR PageReference retPage = Page.forecastquota; retPage.getParameters().put('Id',s); retPage.setRedirect(true); return retPage; } public String getSelectedUserId() { return SelectedUserId; } public void setSelectedUserId(String s) { SelectedUserId = s; }

{uu.id} = nothing. It will be interpreted literally as {uu.id}. Use: {!uu.id} Mind the !

https://c.na3.visual.force.com/apex/forecastquota?id={uu.id} should be

https://c.na3.visual.force.com/apex/forecastquota?id={!uu.id}

The line of code I believe is causing the problem is posted below.  I am trying to pass the User Id back to the controller as a parameter in both value and assignTo. I am using both methods to see if either works.  In both cases, my testmethod system.debug shows the true User Id passed back to the controller when I use the currentpage().getparameters().get('UserId') and also the getSelectedUserId methods.  However, when it is executed live, I don't get the UserId passed to the page, but{uu.id}.  TestMethod and results below as well.

 

<apex:param name="UserId" value="{uu.id}" assignTo="{!SelectedUserId}"/>

 

TEST METHOD CODE: //CHECK UserSelected System.currentPageReference().getParameters().put('UserId',u.id); PageReference tPageRefUserSelected = myPageConInit.UserSelected(); String tURL1 = tPageRefUserSelected.getURL(); String tURL2 = Page.ForecastQuota.getURL() + '?Id=' + u.id; system.debug('@@@T1:URLs=' + tURL1 + '--' + tURL2); String sss = tPageRefUserSelected.getParameters().get('Id');

system.debug ('@@@@T1:apexPages.currentPage()=' + apexPages.currentPage()); system.debug ('@@@@T1:tPageRefUserSelected=' + tPageRefUserSelected); system.debug ('@@@@T1:tPageRefUserSelected.getParams=' + sss); TEST RESULTS: 20090507123456.941:Class.ForecastQuotaInit.t1: line 235, column 9:

That did it.  I can't believe I missed the "!".  You look at your code so long and gloss over the syntax.  Thank you.
