Template Text: Static HTML

In many cases, a large percent of your JSP page just consists of static HTML, known as template text. In all respects except one, this HTML looks just like normal HTML, follows all the same syntax rules, and is simply "passed through" to the client by the servlet created to handle the page. Not only does the HTML look normal, it can be created by whatever tools you already are using for building Web pages. For example, I used Allaire's HomeSite for most of the JSP pages in this tutorial.

The one minor exception to the "template text is passed straight through" rule is that, if you want to have "<%" in the output, you need to put "<\%" in the template text.
