Its OK and thanks for the responses. I guess Im looking for another level
of abstraction / indirection. In Struts you can specify a so-called action path
which is really a URL mapping to forward the request to an action which is
really a Java method. In JSF, can something similar to this be done easily?
Basically if you request a page some-page.jsf, a backing bean method will get
called, and then a particular view will be forwarded to depending on the result
returned from that backing bean method.

Specific inbound URL mapping is not, I don't believe, supported as the whole
JSF lifecycle includes the restoration of the view root; any inbound URL may
or may not have the appropriate view information available for restoration
before hitting one of the backing beans.
Perhaps if you could tell us exactly what you're trying to do, we could help
identify a JSF-compatible solution without trying to guess exactly the kind of
answer that you're looking to hear.

I meant url --> beacking bean method mapping. I don't want to go the
result page directly.

Um, have you actually read anything about JSF?
I mean anyone who RTFM would know that the navigation rules provide the
string->result page mapping as struts provides...
