Comparison With Similar Technologies
JSP pages are similar to PHP pages and ASP.NET Web Forms, in that all three add server-side code to an HTML page. However, all three terms refer to a different component of the system. JSP refers to the JSP pages, which can be used alone, with Java servlets, or with a framework such as Apache Struts. PHP is itself a programming language, designed for dynamic Web pages. ASP.net is a framework comparable to Struts or JavaServer Faces that uses pages called Web Forms.
While JSP pages use the Java language, ASP.NET pages can use any .NET-compatible language, usually C#.
ASP.NET is designed for a Microsoft Windows web server, while PHP and Java server technologies (including JSP) are fairly operating system agnostic.

Famous quotes containing the words comparison with, comparison and/or similar:
“I have travelled a good deal in Concord; and everywhere, in shops, and offices, and fields, the inhabitants have appeared to me to be doing penance in a thousand remarkable ways.... The twelve labors of Hercules were trifling in comparison with those which my neighbors have undertaken; for they were only twelve, and had an end; but I could never see that these men slew or captured any monster or finished any labor.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Certainly there is not the fight recorded in Concord history, at least, if in the history of America, that will bear a moments comparison with this, whether for the numbers engaged in it, or for the patriotism and heroism displayed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“A whole village-full of sensuous emotion, scattered abroad all the year long, surged here in a focus for an hour. The forty hearts of those waving couples were beating as they had not done since, twelve months before, they had come together in similar jollity. For the time Paganism was revived in their hearts, the pride of life was all in all, and they adored none other than themselves.”
—Thomas Hardy (18401928)
