gegin question : how to launch a jsp file ? 1

[tyris]

i have a server enabled for servlet and jsp.
i must test it but have never used jsp.
i have a jsp file.
what i want to know is how is launched a jsp file ? is it launched from a html file ? i need to have an index.html file to test the web site in the server. so what must i do ? is there a command in the html file that tells to laucnh the jsp file ?

Put the JSP file in your document root directory i.e. htdocs for example and access it the same way as you do a HTML file i.e.

http://yourserver/yourpage.jsp.

You don't call it from a plain HTML like server side includes for example.

Yes if you wanted to you could do:

<a href=&quot;simple.jsp?numtimes=5&quot;>Click to load the JSP</a>
