Not Quite Correct.
I'll clarify :
The method / variable declared within the declaration tags i.e. <% !..... %>
become an instance method / variable of the compiled jsp servlet class.
Where as variables declared inside the scriptlets i.e. <%....%> become
_jspService method variables and their scope is limited to the _jspService
method. Also note that you cannot declare a method inside scriptlets because
in Java its not possible to declare one method inside the other.
To access the variable declared in the scriptlets from the instance method
declared within the declartion tags you would need to pass the _jspService
method variable to your instance method.
Nothing much to do with initialization,ect. as far as instance methods are
concerned. Though the jspInit method is related to initialization,ect.
Have a nice day.

Sachin S. Khanna.
