JavaServer Pages JSP <programming, World-Wide Web> (JSP) A freely available specification for extending the {Java Servlet} {API} to generate dynamic {web pages} on a {web server}. The JSP specification was written by industry leaders as part of the Java development program. JSP assists developers in creating {HTML} or {XML} pages that combine static (fixed) page templates with dynamic content. Separating the {user interface} from content generation allows page designers to change the page layout without having to rewrite program code. JSP was designed to be simpler than pure servlets or {CGI} {scripting}. JSP uses XML-like tags and scripts written in Java to generate the page content. HTML or XML formatting {tags} are passed back to the client. Application logic can live on the server, e.g. in {JavaBeans}. JSP is a {cross-platform} alternative to {Microsoft's} {Active Server Pages}, which only runs in {IIS} on {Windows NT}. Applications written to the JSP specification can be run on compliant web servers, and web servers such as {Apache}, {Netscape Enterprise Server}, and Microsoft {IIS} that have had Java support added. JSP should soon be available on {Unix}, {AS/400}, and {mainframe} platforms. JavaServer Pages (http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/).
