Question

jsp:how to hide folder structure of website from users?

Answer 1

+7 A:

In the default web.xml of the application server you need to disable the directory listing feature. In case of JBoss AS (specifically: Tomcat) you need to set the DefaultServlet's initialization parameter listings to false:

<init-param>
    <param-name>listings</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
</init-param>

Then you did something wrong. Ensure that you're working on the right server. Review the steps you did. Don't forget to reboot the server after the change.

is it possible to hide static resources like *.html,*.jsp

You mean hiding from *direct* access? That's an entirely different problem/story. Placing them in `/WEB-INF` and using a page controller servlet should do.
