JSP pages can access full Java functionality in the following ways:
•
by embedding Java code directly in scriptlets in the page
•
by accessing Java beans
•
by using server-side tags that include Java servlets
Both beans and servlets are Java classes that need to be compiled, but they can be
defined and compiled by a Java programmer, who then publishes the interface to
the bean or the servlet. The web page designer can access a pre-compiled bean or
servlet from a JSP page.
Enterprise Server 6.0 supports JSP tag libraries and standard portable tags.
