Comment on Tutorial : Introduction to JSP expression language By Abinaya
scriptlets when used in a page - helper pattern...i.e. every jsp page has a help java class which incorporates BUTT SIMPLE scriptlets...not the obviously wrong scriptlets from hell always used to justify the explosion of expression languages....used that on several projects and the html folks would just dummy in dynamic stuff...which i would replace with a fall off a log easy to use function call for them....we both did our jobs quickly and efficiently....

now with this CRAP of tags looking like code which then codes java and then codes html and when they are nested becomes unbelievably complex to figure out when and where you can use various tricks...the pages become so complex that not only can web developers not do it....the java developers (with their poor art web designs) are now stuck doing the work because no one else can manage the complexity...

this goes to show what would have happened to java if they had opened it up to soon to the well meaning but complexity driven ghouls of open source
