[opencms-dev] Static Export, Modules, and JSPs

[Abhishek Tiwari]

Hi Mitesh,

Well as far as I know static export is not for the files where there is 
dynamic generation of content.
When i tried to do a static export for my jsp files opencms actually 
executed them and exported the resultant html.
So to export my jsp's and other files I use module management under the 
administration section where to export my files wheteher jsp, html or 
image files I mention the path of my folders, files which needs to be 
exported which in turn creates a zip file.
Now this zip file can be imported  in other servers where opencms is 
running again using module management.
