Best practices

[Ajit Joglekar <av...@yahoo.com>]

What issues are there if i give access to all the jsp pages in an
application only through the action servlet? Is this a good practise to
follow?

Is there any collection of struts best practices somewhere?

TIA.

It's situational. Some people want their application to have that level
of control. Other people want people to be able to jump in and out and
be able to bookmark pages. 

A good way to keep users out of flow-control sensitive pages is to store
them under WEB-INF. A browser can't access these directly, but your
application can.

It may be a little early for that. As the source to more Struts
applications become available, perhaps we will be able to develop some.
Feel free to start a page of your own!
