Creating Static Content

You create static content in a JSP page by simply writing it as if you were creating a page that consists only of that content. Static content can be expressed in any text-based format such as HTML, WML, and XML. The default format is HTML. If you want to use a format other than HTML you include a page directive with the contentType attribute set to the format type at the beginning of your JSP page. For example, if you want a page to contain data expressed in the wireless markup language (WML), you need to include the following directive:

<%@ page contentType="text/vnd.wap.wml"%> 

A registry of content type names is kept by IANA at:
