Welcome to our JSP documentation page. Here you will find comprehensive information about JavaServer Pages (JSP), a popular technology for creating dynamic web pages.

Overview

JSP is a server-side scripting language that enables the creation of web applications. It is a part of the Java platform and is widely used in combination with Java servlets.

  • Dynamic Content: JSP allows you to generate HTML dynamically based on user input or server-side data.
  • Server-Side Logic: JSP pages can contain Java code, which means you can perform complex operations on the server.
  • Easy Integration: JSP can be easily integrated with Java applications and other technologies.

Features

  • Standard Tags: JSP provides a rich set of standard tags for common tasks like iterating over collections, setting attributes, and handling exceptions.
  • Custom Tags: You can create your own custom tags to extend the functionality of JSP.
  • Expression Language (EL): EL allows you to easily access server-side data and perform simple operations within JSP pages.

Getting Started

To get started with JSP, you need to have a Java development environment set up. Here is a simple guide:

  1. Install Java Development Kit (JDK).
  2. Set up a web server like Apache Tomcat.
  3. Create a new JSP file with the .jsp extension.
  4. Write your Java code within JSP tags.
