JSP Introduction

JSP INTRODUCTION:

JSP stands for Java Server Pages. These are used to develop web based applications. JSP's are also used in client - server environment. Every program ends with '.jsp' extension. we no need to configure JSP programs as part of web.xml(Deployment Descriptor). We can send the request directly from the browser as follows. 

• Eg: http://localhost:8080/webapp/one.jsp 

There are so many advantages of JSP when compared with servlets. The following are some of them. 

ADVANTAGES OF JSP ON SERVLETS:

1. Improve the productivity of the developers. One can develop JSP project quickly when compared with servlets. 
2. We can develop JSP's without the knowledge on Java programming language. 
3. By using JSP's we can separate business logic and presentation logic.  
4. Complexity in the code can be reduced using JSP's.

When we deploy the JSP project, the server converts the JSP programs into corresponding Servlets.
