Hi Werner, Java's success is partly because of "safe programming", jsps are more and more compilable* units, we even have autocompletion in it (that prooves the file is really structured). I have read superficially about what facelets is, I think I've understood you can "compile" to see if the outputted jsp will be valid, that's a good point (it reminds me the first C++ compilers that had as output C files). I still don't know a lot about facelets but the more I hear about it the more I think it's a good candidate to be the next web generation, but don't forget it has JavaFX in front of it and this one is making a lot more noise today...
*By compilable I mean checked at compile time. Regards, Zied 2007/7/23, Werner Punz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Ideal would be something along facelets for high level templating no tag handlers whatsover, only one component class, and the renderer also written in preferrably the same templating language.
