Configure the web server to not recognize the .jsp mime type. Then any
link to a .jsp page will generate an "Error 404 Page Not Found". The
servlet mappings should still work fine.
That being said, I've found that whenever I make a decision like this based
on a design preference, I almost always find some unusual case where it
really makes sense to do things the way I've said shouldn't be done.

Subject: Design question
In my opinion, most ( if not all ) links should be Action URIs. What I mean
is, struts views should not post to urls which are JSP struts views.
Rather, valid URLs that are posted to ( or even referenced in ) should
always be controllers. For those who agree with this philosophy, can you
give me some suggestions on how I can force this? One idea I've had is to
place a customized on top of all JSP views which checks for a hidden
request variable that only my controllers know about. So, if this request
variable is not found than the view craps out. Any other ideas?
