Important things in lifecycle of jsp:
1.Translation(conversion to servlet) and compilation happens only once in the complete life of jsp.
2.Translation and compilation of jsp happens when we access that jsp,i mean not like servlets where we can first create class file (probably through ant)and then access that servlet.
Life cycle is more or less same as servlet once jsp is converted to servlet which is the first step in the life cycle of jsp.
Please correct me if wrong somewhere.
