Getting the security less application ready

1> Add jstl.jar (version 1.1 i guess) to your WEB-INF/lib folder
2> Modify index.jsp as shown below
Listing 1 - index.jsp

	<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
	pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
	<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
	<html>
	<head>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
	<title>Sky Photos home</title>
	</head>
	<body>
	<h1>Welcome to Sky Photos</h1>
	<p>Not an user yet? <a href="#">Register</a></p>
	<p><a href="viewphotoupload.html">Upload Photo</a></p>
	</body>
	</html>

3> Add a controller for the landing or index page.
Listing 2 - EntryController.java


	package org.opengarage.skyphoto.web.controller;

	import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
	import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

	/**
	* @author dhrubo
	*
	*/
	@Controller
	public class EntryController {

	@RequestMapping("/index")
	public String viewLanding(){
	return "index";
	}
	}

4> Add a controller for the upload page view
Listing 3 - UploadController.java

	package org.opengarage.skyphoto.web.controller;

	import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
	import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

	/**
	* @author dhrubo
	*
	*/
	@Controller
	public class UploadController {
	@RequestMapping("/viewphotoupload")
	public String viewPhotoUpload(){
	return "upload";
	}
	}

5> Time to launch the browser and test it on the browser.

Figure 1 - Skyphotos

6> Click on upload photo, you will see it is accessible to any one. But only logged on users should be able to access that page.

Figure 2 - secure page

In the next post I will start with the first step to ensure that a user is logged in / signed in before he or she can access the upload photo page.
