        But that's the whole beauty of JSP. The ability to embed ANY code
directly in the HTML. JSP is for developing web applications, not for
authoring cool homepages.

        You may well think that it should be that way, but alas, it is not
so. Again, JSP is mainly for developing applications. The whole point is
not really to embed Java in HTML, but to embed HTML in java code. JSPs
actually generate servlets. That's the point. The "HTML people" have
enough toys to play around with already, and with JSP Sun filled a large
gap in the web application development world.
