Appendix B. JSP and Tomcat Primer
This appendix describes some essential concepts of JavaServer Pages (JSP) programming, which
is used earlier in this book beginning with Chapter 16. The necessary background is fairly extensive,
which is why the material is presented here in a separate appendix
rather than breaking up the flow of that chapter. The topics
discussed here are:
A brief overview of servlet and JSP technologies
Setting up the Tomcat server
Tomcat's directory structure
The layout of web applications
Elements of JSP pages
For additional information about JSP pages, servlets, or Tomcat, see
Appendix C.
