Explanation of .jsp file extensions:
The .jsp file extension stands for Java Server Page. JSP displays as a server-generated HTML Web page. The server uses Java code which is parsed by the Web server and then sent to the user's Web browser.
Because of the way the code is parsed into HTML, the end user doesn’t actually see the JSP code – just the results generated into HTML by the Java code in the page. JSP files can be edited using a basic text editor or a Web development program.
Typical problems associated with the .jsp file extension:
One of the most common problems with .jsp files is when they don’t display properly. This is usually due to a problem with the scripting side which prevents the page from displaying properly. When this happens, you’ll see a .jsp error page of some sort.
Numerous .jsp errors can occur for a variety of reasons.
Another common .jsp problem occurs when you receive an infected .jsp file. When this happens, your computer could become infected with spyware or computer viruses.
Solutions/Recommendations:
While users can’t do much about bugs in .jsp pages, you can protect your computer from malware. Because .jsp files can be infected, it’s critical that your computer is set up with current anti-spyware and anti-virus software. Run regular scans to detect and remove any malware your system finds.
Run a registry cleaner to resolve many common .jsp errors.
