You can check the "HTTP_REFERRER" host header info. If you click an url (hyperlink) http://localhost:8080/app/str/testview_srchpost.do which is given in http://localhost:8080/app/str/index.jsp page then the referrer would be http://localhost:8080/app/str/index.jsp if you just type the url in the location bar, then the referrer would be blank. You can check that out and send a status 500 in the header.

Instead of testview_srchpost.do, user types testtwoview_srchpost.do and clicks ENTER. I want to restrict such types of URL modification Struts application. I should take the user to a default access denied page when ever user does such changes. How to identify this action of the user? Pl. give some ideas.
