In this excerpt from chapter 4 of Joel Murach's <EM>Java Servlets and JSP</EM>, you'll learn how to develop a web application that consists of HTML pages and JavaServer Pages (JSPs).

good introduction. but there's that "Hello World!"

Good article, just one comment: Using java code directly in your jsp is not considered best practice. When possible, try to put the logic in an ejb, then use the standard taglibrary to include the data in your page. If you don't have access to an ejb container just use the taglibs to write your logic. It will be much cleaner and easier to work with (specially for non-programmers like webdesigners).
