Hi all,
First of all, I must say I do not have a lot of experience working
with jsp. From a "newbie" point of view, I think that model 1 is easier
to understand and use than model 2.

>>1. Model 2 is poorly explained in the spec. This in itself is a
serious problem.
The whole spec is quite poor in details and specially model 2 it is just
introduced without a serious explanation (that it really deserves).
About new 0.92 tags, at first sight some seem to me needless (eg.
<DISPLAY ... vs <% out.print...) but now i think they could be useful.
If you use a HTML editor like HotMP, you can add (to its dictionary) new
tags and their corresponding fields and they are checked like any other
HTML tag. You will also have an attribute inspector to let you enter its
parameters values. In HTML editor, no syntax checking is performed on <%
out.print... but will warn you if <DISPLAY ... tag is mispelled. As
HTML (so jsp) pages are normally changed by people who are not java
programmers there is fewer risk of mistakes.
Just to end, I think that it is necessary to keep jsp as simple as
possible. Model 1 is a good choice and easy way to start with jsp (at
least for me) Model 2 need a better documentation that explains it
deeply.
Regards
Carlos
