Thanks for the reply. Just to verify, are you saying I can just add the
tag as I would with HTML. If so, that is great!! Thanks for taking the
time to reply.

That is correct. A well-written JSP will look almost
exactly like a normal HTML file, with the occasional
<% %> intrusion.

(This is a statement of opinion, but it's also The Truth.
If your JSP looks more like a Java program with occasional
HTML tags, you're doing it the hard way.)

Actually, a well-written JSP will look like XHTML with namespaced
action tags such as "<c:if test='${something}'>Something is
true</c:if>"
:-)

Actually, a well-written JSP would work - bug free - regardless of
whether you use scriptlets or tag libraries or EL. Nothing is wrong
with scriptlets.

Nothing is "wrong" with them, but they tend to be abused.
