[opencms-dev] JSP includes (forms) at the HTML page

[Claus Priisholm]

Usually you do it by either making a JSP-page which uses parts of a 
given template (such as header, menu and footer) or else make a template 
that includes a JSP script as part of the template. Either methods 
works, but I find the latter easier and it allows the user to actually 
edit some of the text on the page by opening it in the wysiwyg editor.

http://www.kej-varmeregnskab.dk/kontakt/bestil-flyt.html shows an 
example where a JSP script is included right after the body-element in 
the template. The user can edit the body element as usual (in the 
example the body only holds a heading "Bestilling af flytteaflæsning:") 
and the JSP renders the form (and handles the submitted values as well).
