Is there any analog of ASP.NET master page in pure JSP?

Question

Pls give a link with sample if possible

Answer 1

Sorry, didn't read your question properly.

The answer would be: no.

But, if you can use JSF, Facelets templates are pretty similar to ASP.NET master pages.

Answer 2

According to this article, JSP does not have an equivalent technology:

Although various JSF IDEs offer page templating to a certain extent such as IBM page templating, there is not yet a uniform easy way to build page templates such as how you use Microsoft "Master Page" templating technology.

Answer 3

No, not really. Here is an idea of how you might put one together that sort of works like ASP.NET.

Answer 4

ASP.NET master page is a templating technology. JSP itself is already less or more a templating technology. There's under each the <jsp:include> tag to include templates. You can use it dynamically with EL, but it is however not very advanced/enhanced. Facelets has brought changes in it.

JavaServer Pages^TM (JSP^TM) technology, previously used as the presentation technology for JavaServer Faces, does not support all of the new features available in JavaServer Faces 2.0. JSP is considered as a deprecated presentation technology for JavaServer Faces 2.0.

On Facelets you can use JSF, which is a component based MVC framework like ASP.NET MVC.

Alternatives outside the Java EE API are Apache Tapestry and Apache Tiles.
