Rewriting URL in jstl

Hi,

In jstl http://localhost:8080/MMS_PricingPOC/employeeProcess.do?dispatch=getEmployees&employeeid=21
how can i hide dispatch and employeeid from being visible. The visible url should only be http://localhost:8080/MMS_PricingPOC/employeeProcess.do

Why?

If it's for "security", don't bother.

Otherwise, you'll need to post it from a form.

Why not bother??
If its username and password how will it not matter?

Because there is no security in simply not placing the info on the URL. It's just as easy to "steal" the info from a post. If you need data passed securely, it needs to be SLL-protected.

Thanks. But one more thing I need to pass like odd 10 params.
URL is getting cumbersome how can I take care of the same??

If you are not typing in the URL by hand, why should the number of params be a problem?

I have been asked that params should not be visible in URL.
and I have done whole jsp in JSTL. I don know how to pass hidden variable as url is not redirected to the proper page.
Please help.

I suspect that you are not understanding the difference between POST and GET. Try this link. http://www.w3answers.com/what-difference-between-get-and-post-methods-form-submitting-give-cases-where-we-can-use-get-and-pos

Not having seen any code yet, its hard to judge, but I would guess you are using the JSTL <c:url> tag with <c:param> to build these links?
Using that approach it is impossible to avoid the parameters in the query string.

Do you mean that you don't know how to create an HTML form with hidden parameters? Or have you not yet realized that you need a form using the POST method if you want to connect to a URL without using URL parameters?
