use of servlets over jsp's

[raghuram bikkani]

what is the use of servlets when jsp's are already there

[Christophe Verré]

Have a look at the design pattern called MVC.
Do you want to put all the logic in a JSP file ?
Good luck then.

Why use a wrench when a screwdriver works better?

Each mechanisms has uses for which they are best suited, and the most accepted patterns for web applications use both JSPs and servlets to their best advantages.

For more details google for the term "model 2" with regard to web application structure and design.
