1: What is a output comment?
A: A comment that is sent to the client in the viewable page source.The JSP
engine handles an output comment as uninterpreted HTML text, returning the comment
in the HTML output sent to the client. You can see the comment by viewing the page
source from your Web browser.
JSP Syntax
<!-- comment [ <%= expression %> ] -->
Example 1
<!-- This is a commnet sent to client on
<%= (new java.util.Date()).toLocaleString() %>
-->
Displays in the page source:
<!-- This is a commnet sent to client on March 28, 2008 -->
2: What is a Hidden Comment?
A: A comments that documents the JSP page but is not sent to the client. The
JSP engine ignores a hidden comment, and does not process any code within hidden
comment tags. A hidden comment is not sent to the client, either in the displayed
JSP page or the HTML page source. The hidden comment is useful when you want to
hide or "comment out" part of your JSP page.
You can use any characters in the body of the comment except the closing --%>
combination. If you need to use --%> in your comment, you can escape it by
typing --%\>.
JSP Syntax
<%-- comment --%>
Examples
<%@ page language="java" %>
<html>
<head><title>A Hidden Comment </title></head>
<body>
<%-- This comment will not be visible to the colent in the page source --%>
</body>
</html>
3: What is a Expression?
A: An expression tag contains a scripting language expression that is
evaluated, converted to a String, and inserted where the expression appears in the
JSP file. Because the value of an expression is converted to a String, you can use
an expression within text in a JSP file. Like
<%= someexpression %>
<%= (new java.util.Date()).toLocaleString() %>
You cannot use a semicolon to end an expression
4: What is a Declaration?
A: A declaration declares one or more variables or methods for use later in
the JSP source file.
A declaration must contain at least one complete declarative statement. You can
declare any number of variables or methods within one declaration tag, as long as
they are separated by semicolons. The declaration must be valid in the scripting
language used in the JSP file.
<%! somedeclarations %>
<%! int i = 0; %>
<%! int a, b, c; %>
5: What is a Scriptlet?
A: A scriptlet can contain any number of language statements, variable or
method declarations, or expressions that are valid in the page scripting
language.Within scriptlet tags, you can
1.Declare variables or methods to use later in the file (see also Declaration).
2.Write expressions valid in the page scripting language (see also Expression).
3.Use any of the JSP implicit objects or any object declared with a
<jsp:useBean> tag.
You must write plain text, HTML-encoded text, or other JSP tags outside the
scriptlet.
Scriptlets are executed at request time, when the JSP engine processes the client
request. If the scriptlet produces output, the output is stored in the out object,
from which you can display it.
