Hi. I'm not certain about this but it seems to me that it would be next to impossible to keep the html source from being viewed by someone using any browser (this is not a server side issue). The source has to be uploaded to the browser and, once it is uploaded anyone can view source on the page.
As far as keeping your directory structure at least a little bit more obscured you can do two things. You can never fully obscure the directory structure as the browser requires this information to load images, style sheets and links. The first is to put an index.jsp or index.html file in so that people cannot view your directory structure directly (there is probably a better way to do this). The second is to use servlet mappings. I'm not sure if this needs to be said but even though people can determine your directory structure with fairly little effort this does not, in itself, pose a security risk.
