While most other techniques are indeed interpreted, the JSP is handled quite differently. The first time a JSP is accessed, it is actually converted to Java source code and then compiled to a servlet. This is the traditional long load time for a new servlet. However, once that servlet is loaded, subsequent hits require no initial startup time. This gives JSP technology a significant advanatge in scalability. Joe
