I can't seem to find a language syntax highlighting file for JSPs for Notepad++. Is there one out there?

(Currently, I've just got it set to use Java highlighting, which is a little sub-optimal. I could knock together my own, I suppose, but I'm hoping the internet has solved my problem for me.)

Rather than using Java highlighting, try applying ASP highlighting to your JSP files, it produces better results.

Well, granted, but I'd rather apply JSP highlighting, you know?

As a completely different alternative, have you considered using an IDE? For example Eclipse, IntelliJ or Netbeans.

As of version 5.6.5, Notepad++ supports JSP syntax highlighting! Hooray! See the release notes at http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/notepad-plus/index.php?title=Releases

Since JSPX files are XML based, I would associate this extension with the XML syntax highlighter.
