Hi Laurie,
Thank you for helping the question. It seem to be alot of works to prevent the
path shows up at the address bar. I though by seting up the Tile definition
like below should be good. When a user press the Administration link, Tile
forward the reference to the Global forward named UsersAdministrationPage. In
turn forworded to the UsersAdministrationPage.jsp and the address box only
shows http://companyname.com/WebApplicationName/UsersAdministrationPage.do.
This is what I want. The question is that would Tiles except
UsersAdministrationPage.do as a valid string.
<!-- Tiles Menu definition -->
<definition name="Infra.WebComponent.AdminMenuItems"
path="/Infra/WebComponent/Layouts/menuLayout.jsp" >
<put name="title" value="User Administration Menu" />
<putList name="items" >
<item value="Home” link="/index.do" />
<item value="Administration" link="/UsersAdministrationPage.do"/>
</putList>
</definition>
<!-- Structs configuration file -->
<struts-config>
<!-- ==== Global Forward Definitions ============= -->
<global-forwards>
<forward name="index" path="/index.jsp.do"/>
<forward name="UsersAdministrationPage" path="/UsersAdministrationPage.do"/>
</global-forwards>
<action-mappings>
<action path="/UsersAdministrationPage"
forward="/WebComponent/Presentation/Admin/UsersAdministrationPage.jsp"/>
<action path="/index"
forward="/WebComponent/Presentation/Admin/index.jsp"/>
</action-mappings>
</struts-config>
