What i think they're trying to point out is that its a good idea to
separate the programming logic from the formatting of the page. Try
keeping all your programming logic in the Servlet and all your
formatting of the data(HTML) in the JSP. Essentially if your a Servlet
developer try staying away from outputting HTML tags in you Servlet
code. Let the HTML in the JSP take care of the formatting(not your
Servlet).
This is generally good 'style'. It makes for easy changes in the
formatting of your data without having to recompile anything.
