Let me give u one more example ! This one comes from an adaptation of our
existing code
<%@ taglib uri="web-inf/taglib.tld" prefix="custom" %>
<table align=center border=1>
<tr>
<td>Empno
<td>EName
<td>Designation
<td>Department
</tr>
<custom:EmployeeList
from="<% request.getParameter("Emp_from") %>"
to="<% request.getParameter("Emp_To") %>" >
<tr>
<td><%=Empno %>
<td><%=EName %>
<td><%=Designation %>
<td><%=Department %>
</tr>
<custom:EmployeeList />
</table>
The best part of the above is that *this* kind of seperation is not even
possible by beans. What the above will do ( humour me, if u are already
aware of it) is that it will repeat the body of my "custom" tag producing
rows of tables. With a little modification i can produce a employee dropdown
list without altering the processing logic.
Hope this helps ..

Compare something like <%= mybean.getSomething() %> to <jsp:getProperty
name="mybean" property="something" /> - one is well-formed, and more likely
to be understood by less-aware JSP programmers.
It also means your JSP isn't clogged with tons of scriptlets that interface
with beans; JSP doesn't use beans for actions so much as for data
repositories. You can, for example, use a bean to hold your data and then a
tag to act upon it. That's what most of *my* taglibs do, and that's the
model I've found to be most efficient to me.
