I think they're supposed to be, but I have found that the META tags
sometimes don't seem to work, whereas the JSP directive seems to be more
reliable.

Are the HTML meta tags and the JSP tags interchangeable? i.e. are they
the
same thing?

It is perfectly right. You must take care not to have page directive
with contentType attribute in any included pages. If you have only one
such an entry per page then everything is alright.
I suggest to start with simple pages and then move to sophisticated
ones.

It tells me I can't have two "contentType" entries when I put in the JSP
tag!!
