You can write methods by using the declaration tag:
<%!
public returntype methodname(paramtype1 param1...) {
// do something
// return something
}
%>
though I would certainly NOT try to override the jspService(...) method.
Note that this will not help you build re-usable code. A better bet
would be to use a "Utility" bean or some other java class that you
write, perhaps with static methods so it doesn't need to be
instantiated.
Using beans and taglibs are the best way to structure a web app,
maximizing reusability. You should strive to minimize the amount of
scriptlet/declaration/expression code in your .jsp pages.
