[opencms-dev] Direct edit on JSP

Have a look at the Administration -> Database management -> Extended HTML Import 
We used that (in version 5.0.1) to import our legacy site. Take care of cropping headers and footers whcih should be processed in OpeCMS by your template.

I'd like to back up Florian and strongly recommend the separation of JSPs and HTML-content as far as possible. That means: include the HTML in your JSP or your JSP-Template via <cms:include> or the like. 
Best regards,
