What are you guys using for your view in Spring MVC. I know Spring MVC has a wide support for views but I'm having trouble finding what works well, what view to use when, etc.
Any insight would be great!

JSP, of course.
Sometimes PDF; Excel when necessary.
BlazeDS makes Flex integration with Spring possible. That's a great way to go if you use Flex.
"...I'm having trouble finding what works well..." - they all work well from Spring's point of view.
What to use when? Use the technology that you know best. Spring can deal with all of them just fine.
We are using the following templating languages
Apache Velocity: Most of our old projects are using apache velocity to render the view. This is a very easy to learn and use language. But here xml operations are very limited.
Freemarker: Now we are migrating our project to Freemarker. This is a very good templating language. Advantage over velocity is that it has a very good support for xml data processing
