Please pardon me if this is down a beaten-down track, but I really fail to
understand the point of using servlets with JSP. JSP is one level higher
than servlets and why not just embed beans in JSP to do the kind of
pre-processing that servlets are said to be used for in this forum. Based on
the results from these beans, re-direction can take place to another JSP
page in case of error, special condition etc.
The only problems I find with current JSP (1.0) are as follows. I can't
figure out a good and portable way to avoid the overhead of JSP page
compilation and the overhead of instantiating application beans along with
database connections upon the first request.
Second, more ISPs support servlets than they do the JSPs, naturally. I can't
figure out an easy way to develop a web application using JSPs (say JSWDK
1.0) and then auto-magically convert the jsp pages into servlets deployable
on the ISPs supporting servlets.
Any thought?? Thanks a bunch in advance..
