JSP (Java Server Pages) (Video-Based)

Course details

JSP technology is used to create web application just like Servlet technology. It can be thought of as an extension to Servlet because it provides more functionality than servlet such as expression language, JSTL, etc.

A JSP page consists of HTML tags and JSP tags. The JSP pages are easier to maintain than Servlet because we can separate designing and development. It provides some additional features such as Expression Language, Custom Tags, etc.

JSP is a server side technology that does all the processing at server. It is used for creating dynamic web applications, using java as programming language.


Basically, any html file can be converted to JSP file by just changing the file extension from “.html” to “.jsp”, it would run just fine. What differentiates JSP from HTML is the ability to use java code inside HTML. In JSP, you can embed Java code in HTML using JSP tags. for run the code below, every time you run this, it would display the current time. That is what makes this code dynamic
