Java Server Pages (JSP) Introduction to JSP and Its Features Java Server Pages (JSP) is a technology used for developing dynamic web pages based on Java. JSP allows developers to embed Java code directly into HTML pages, making it easier to create dynamic content that interacts with users or a database. It is part of the Java EE (Enterprise Edition) platform, which provides a set of tools for developing large-scale, enterprise-level applications. JSP is essentially a server-side technology, meaning it runs on the web server rather than the client’s browser. It works by converting JSP files into servlets, which are Java programs executed on the server. How JSP Works Client Request : A client (usually a browser) sends an HTTP request for a JSP page. Server Processing : The JSP file is compiled into a servlet by the web server (e.g., Apache Tomcat) if it hasn’t been compiled already. The servlet contains the same logic as the original JSP, but in Java. Response Generation : The servlet generates the dynamic content (e.g., HTML, XML) and sends it as a response to the client’s browser. Client Response : The browser receives the HTML response and displays it to the user. Features
