In my web application, I use the .load() function in JQuery, to load some
JSP pages inside a DIV.
$("#myDiv").load("chat.
jsp");
In chat.
jsp, no Java codes is executed unless this client has Logged in, means, I check the session.
String sessionId = session.getAttribute("SessionId");
if(sessionId.equals("100")){
//execute codes
}else{
//redirect to log in page
}
Those java codes that will be executed, they will out.println(); some HTML elements.
I don't want the client to write /chat.
jsp in the browser to access this page, as it will look bad, and the other stuff in the main page won't be there, and this could do a harm to the web app security.
How can I restrict someone from accessing chat.
jsp directly, but yet keep it accessible via .load() ?
UPDATE:
JavaDB is a class that I made, it connects me to the Database.
This is chat.
jsp
<body>
<%
String userId = session.getAttribute("SessionId").toString();
if (userId != null) {
String roomId = request.getParameter("roomId");
String lastMessageId = request.getParameter("lastMessageId");
JavaDB myJavaDB = new JavaDB();
myJavaDB.Connect("Chat", "chat", "chat");
Connection conn = myJavaDB.getMyConnection();
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
String lastId = "";
int fi = 0;
ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("select message,message_id,first_name,last_name from users u,messages m where u.user_id=m.user_id and m.message_id>" + lastMessageId + " and room_id=" + roomId + " order by m.message_id asc");
while (rset.next()) {
fi = 1;
lastId = rset.getString(2);
%>
<div class="message">
<div class="messageSender">
<%=rset.getString(3) + " " + rset.getString(4)%>
</div>
<div class="messageContents">
<%=rset.getString(1)%>
</div>
</div>
<% }
%>
<div class="lastId">
<% if (fi == 1) {%>
<%=lastId%>
<% } else {%>
<%=lastMessageId%>
<% }%></div>
<% if (fi == 1) {%>
<div class="messages">
</div>
<% }
} else {
response.sendRedirect("index.
jsp");
}%>
</body>
Guys I don't know what Filter means.
UPDATE
If I decided to send a parameter that tells me that this request came from Jquery.
.load("chat.
jsp",{ jquery : "yes" });
And then check it in chat.
jsp
String yesOrNo = request.getParameter("jquery");
Then they can simply hack this by using this URL.
/chat.jsp?jquer=yes or something like that..
UPDATE
I tried Maksim's advice, I got this when I tried to access chat.
jsp.
Is this the desired effect?
