Depends what you are trying to do. If you want non-java developers to edit
the source, then custom tags _do_ save the day. Alternatively, Java in HTML
ruins things nicely.
IMHO, JSP is just an ASP/CF "me-too"... Not that it means it's not _useful_,
it's just not _elegant_. Look at all the spagetti-code ASP and CF sites
there are out there. Course now it has the J2EE stamp of approval, how good
it actually is becomes irrelevant. Sigh.
