Have to read JSP 1.1 spec, got stuck in version 0.91 with all the <% for(int
i=0;i<tot;i++) %> ;-)
What I like most about XSP is:
+ no programming at all in the XSP page, not even with <pseudoprogramming>
tags
(is this at all possible? have to wait for an XSP implementation to be
sure)
+ no text stream output, the output mechanism is completely
arbritary, the doc. includes an example of passing a SAX handler
to avoid reparsing XML output from the page.
The main problem with ASP/JSP/servlets is their outputstream focus
that makes reparsing the output necessary if you want to chain
XML/XSLT processing stages.
+ Java, JavaScript or any other programming language
