My issue with struts, any help ?

Question

hi all
first time being here, hope a good time ....
my issue is that when I try to prevent from direct access to jsp under struts framework by place jsp files under /WEB-INF/pages on tomcat 5.0.30 ,I made it from index.jsp (/index.jsp) to /WEB-INF/pages/1.jsp by using ForwardAction , but when I try to nevigate to 2.jsp (relative to 1.jsp) without a ForwardAction , the container prompted me resource is not available, so the problem is if I have to use a FrowardAction everytime when I wanna access to jsp files somewhere under /WEB-INF, even from jsp which is in the same directory under /WEB-INF
any hand will be preciated !
thanks a lot in adv !!

first - thanks for your reply
I can understand what you mean , to adhere to the MVC conception , we need to have any action go through the controler .
but , once I wanna access to a jsp file , then I need to set a global-forward and a ForwardAction , when time goes by, and the project keeps getting larger , so there will be too many forwards and FrowardActions , right ?
actually , I have a Office.jsp , which has a frameset inside , left and right,each invokes a jsp file like this :
<frameset rows="*" cols="144,*" framespacing="2" frameborder="NO" border="2" bordercolor="#CC0000">
<frame src="OfficeLeft.jsp" name="leftFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
<frame src="Notification.jsp" name="RightFrame">
</frameset>
when I have successfully forwarded to this Office.jsp , it prompts OfficeLeft.jsp and Notification.jsp are not available. so my problem is I don't know how to get this work fine .
