In JSP 1.0, there is no portable mechanism to request this. However, in
JSP 1.1 there is a new standard mechanism -- submit a request to the
page in question with a request parameter named "jsp_precompile". The
engine will compile your page for you, instead of executing it. See
Section 3.4 of the JSP 1.1 Specification (available at the JavaSoft web
site) for more info.
