help me with struts

[k mut]

what if a user types in the direct jsp page into the browser www.xamplesite.com/xample.jsp

No STRUTS action will be called, so that wont work.
how can i take care of it.I doesn't want to go thru menu.
nothing need to be submitted in that jsp page
just i need to call the struts action that gets datas from database, so the user will get updated information and the i wont verify any authentication for user this is just for some known user.

How about asking Struts questions in the Struts forum. I'll move this over there.

To prevent the user from accessing the JSP page directly, place the JSP page in a location that the users have no access to. For example, /WEB-INF/JSP/xample.jsp.

hello,
to prevent it, you can change the url-pattern at the web.xml to *.jsp (usually *.do), so if there is an url that try to access jsp page, it should be processed through the ActionServlet.

web.xml
=======
<servlet>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>config</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>2</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>detail</param-name>
<param-value>2</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Hope it helps
