Title: RE: Any websites using JSP

This site does use Active Server Pages.  I tried to sign up for their "how 2 jsp tips", and received and ADO error.  So they definitely are using ASP for some of their site.

I don't know what this site really uses, but trying to make assumptions about
the technology being used based on the extensions you see in URLs is pretty
dubious.  Consider how easy it would be to make the JSWDK servlet engine
map ".asp" to the JSP servlet -- a one line addition in the mapping.properties
file.

Why would I ever do this?  Well, if I had converted an ASP app to JSP, and
there were lots of external hyperlinks to the inside pages, I would sure be
tempted to do this mapping so that the external hyperlinks would stil lbe
valid.

For that matter, what makes us so positive that every URL ending in ".html" is
a static file?  Only your web server knows for sure ...
