Howdy, That one's tricky (and strange). When you have a servlet or JSP, the output the user sees is HTML. In HTML, you have <img> tags. The browser will request those images normally in HTTP requests. So from the server's perspective, the request is the same whether the user types in the image URL or you embed it in one of your pages.
Would something like using a mangled images directory name ($KF_%# or something) be sufficient? A name that's hard for users to guess and use directly?

hi there,
I want to restrict the user to access the images directly through the
web.
They should be able to access these images through web pages developed
as
jsp/servlet but should not be able to access these images displayed on
page
by copying the image url to the address bar. Is tomcat directly support this functionality. or any other solution.
Thanks in advance for any solution of the problem.
