JSP's:
1- separate the code from the HTML thus allowing the web developers to do
their thing and the programmers to do theirs.
2- no longer have to update java files just to change look/feel of your
HTML page.
3- standardized structure enabling you to run the same JSP on any JSP
capable servlet engine.
4- page includes on the fly (with a unique JSP HTML tag).
Hope that helps. There's a few other template->servlet based packages on
the market including Freemaker and Webmacro (see the digest for discussions
on these). I'd say that if you have the chance, you should seriously look
into JSP as they really provide a decent separation of code from HTML, which
coincides with the Model-View-Controller paradigm in a better fashion.
