Personally, I dislike using both technologies in the same place. I think that it encourages obfuscation, of which I think the entire world could use less. For that matter, I also dislike using <% %> scripting altogether, and for the same reason. (But sometimes finding the balance between ideals and reality deems it unavoidable.) Technologically, both methods of JSP coding are perfectly valid, so it's really just a matter of your own preference. .
