Frameset In struts1.2.

I want to get like this
http://localhost:8180/webproject
through out the project.

**
Can anyone know how to do it
Thanks and Regards
Zaheer Mohammad

Hi Zaheer,
I would like to understand requirement of hiding actual URL.
Shomehow actual URL should be known to your browser otherwise it wont be
able to send server request.
If user is not going to do view source and check whats there in HTML then
prob you can use frames or if you want to hide your server or webapp then
you can try using apache fronting. But the solution will depend on the
reason why you want to hide the URL.
But as Brian said user will not be able to bookmark your site pages.
Regards,
Nikhil

You'll have to communicate the parameters *somehow*, whether that's using
POST for all your requests (but that's bad form when your requests are
simply looking up data in the database), exposing the full url, or mapping
parameters to url path elements.
I suppose you could also write the front-end to do everything with Ajax
calls, but I'd advise against it. Such sites are annoying to end-users.
Imagine going to Amazon, bookmarking a product, then going back to the
bookmark the next day...and it takes you to the homepage! Not very
user-friendly.
However you resolve this, please make a follow-up post to the list. I'm
curious to see how you handle this issue.

Re: Hiding URL in struts1.2
Posted by Zaheer Mohammad <za...@gmail.com>.
HI,
Thanks to all for your valuable sugestions
Actually i want to hide all parameters form the Url
actual Url's are like this :
http://localhost:8280/mspui/custumerAuthrtn.do?dispmethd=custumerAuthorize&accountNumber=12345
but I should get
http://localhost:8280/mspui/
by hiding parameters in the url.
this is already developed project and this is a enhancement. using post
means i have to change much of code.is there any simple alternative way of
acheiving this.
Thanks in Advance

Could you elaborate your requirement?
URL will be changed when you use
<action name=" loginv "
class="com.test.actions.LoginAction ">
<!-- Home -->
<result name="app_home_action" type="redirectAction">
showHome
</result>
</action>
<action name=" showHome " class="com.utc.pw.spanas.actions.CHome">
</action>

I would look into using URLRewrite [1]. It would be easy to go from showing
this in the browser:
http://localhost:8180/webproject/showHome
to the application processing this:
http://localhost:8180/webproject/loginv.do?dispmethd=showHome
