JSP Expressions

• Place the result of Java statements directly into the HTML.
• Example: <%= "Good Morning!" %> prints Good Morning! to the HTML.
• Note: no need for out.println() here.  It just prints what it sees.
• This executes at runtime, so the results are dynamic.

• Predefined variables make expressions simpler.
• request is the HttpServetRequest object.
• response is the HttpServletResponse object.
• session is the HttpSession associated with the request.
• out is a stream used for writing to the HTML output.  Similar to System.out.println() in an application.
