Hi John With JSP it is like a template and I need not worry about placing the content within the template. that is the only reason for me to use a JSP.
We have some applications already running Apache - Tomcat and adding a JSP is not going to be difficult Also with JSP I can alter the format very easily Please feel free to point out if I'm wrong. how could I get the html source? Could you please explain it for me.

"Format the details as a report"...how would you format them if not HTML? All you have to do is stream the HTML into a buffer, then send that out as the body of a message. You'll want to set the ContentType on your message to HTML. You could do all of this from a JSP, but why would you want to? A cron job can call java and execute a class. If, on the other hand, you are saying that you already have a JSP that generates the report to a browser, and you want to sent that output to someone as an email message, that's different.
