Depends on your perspective. Some people would say, they don't want the pages themselves to have power. Common thought these days is to make the pages -- or any other component -- as dumb as possible. They should know just enough to do their job, which in the case of a page is usually, "make the pretty HTML." =) : I want to be free to stash the content in a database, the file-system or : some other WAR-external resource. I don't see what's stopping you from doing this..? WAR-external content is nothing new. People are regularly advised to do this if their content (say, dynamically-served images) and code (webapp) must vary independently. : I want to be free to have my hieracial : "wiki-like" system deliver content by different means of processing - : dynamic JSP's being the "missing link". What is a "dynamic JSP?" : Up until now, no filter or front-controller can control the origin or : WAR-resources. ?
