Andreas, HTML files are just static files. The way JSP works is that JSP files are compiled to servlets under the hood when needing, so when you copy the code, you are really just copying HTML code.
There are two things you should check here: 1. Browser cache. You may be caching the page. 2. Run the server in debug mode. When the JVM is running in debug mode, it'll allow hot reloading of classes that don't require restarting the JVM. 3. Last case - do a full rebuild. This will blow away the output directories. You shouldn't need this step, since step 2 should resolve the issue if it is not a browser cache issue.
