Hi all,   I need some advice regarding generate jsp file in runtime.   I have a jsp web page which allowed the user the enter value forthe fields , and , when he or she click submit , it will generate thejsp file according to the value entered.  Anyone have any ideas or suggestion how to do that ?ThanksWee Tat

(e.g. <http://java.sun.com/j2ee/tutorial/1_3-fcs/doc/JSPIntro.html>)..or..3) Put a bit of effort into it, and ask a more specific question.-- Andrew Thompsonhttp://www.athompson.info/andrew/Message posted via JavaKB.comhttp://www.javakb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/java-general/200704/1

To the OP: Is that correct?If so, then you don't change the JSP.  JSPs by their very nature create HTML dynamically, so you don't have to change the JSP in order to show data dynamically.Changing a JSP is equivalent to rewriting (part of) the application.  A well-designed application does not need to be rewritten to deal with known runtime situations.You only have to change the JSP if the layout logic changes, and not always even then.  JSPs are inherently dynamic and do not need to be recompiled to show different things depending on runtime phenomena.The Sun JEE tutorial covers how to do this.-- Lew

Ifyou want to have templates based on what a user enters, I wouldsuggest trying a different templating technology.  Google for Velocityor FreeMarker.  Also, you might consider writing your own templatingmechanism. JSP is not intended to be created automatically.
