No, not in this case, because the outer ones are part of the HTML (the
template text, as it's called in the JSP spec), so there's no risk that
the container confuses them with the ones used in the JSP expression.
Your warning applies to the case when an expression is used as an
attribute value for a JSP action element, though:
<jsp:forward page='<%= request.getParameter("nextPage") %>' />
An alternative is to escape the inner ones:
<jsp:forward page="<%= request.getParameter(\"nextPage\") %>" />
