Greetings,
A lot of energy is put around here into development of template systems,
frameworks and such. My question is why not use JSPs? Isn't JSP
designed to work with servlets in order to separate the HTML from the
logic?
In Hardcoding vs. Templates thread someone complained how the templates
keep appearing and "require the user to learn proprietary techniques".
I totally agree. It makes little sense (even when taking into account
that techniques are not proprietary as someone there mentioned but
nevertheless they are techniques that need to be learned).
Also in the same thread there was the movement toward developing very
small scale template solutions by parsing through HTML and looking for
<!--#parse block=begin--> or other meaningful tokens.
So to sum up:
- why go into template world?
- why cook up your own little things to do it?
- why not JSP?
I'm interested in your opinions.
dave.
