Are JSP expressions evaluated inside HTML comments of a JSP page?
i.e What would server output in this case?
<!--
Jeremy <%="Flowers"%>
-->
Will the expression be resolved or will it remain as an expression in the HTML comment
a)
<!--
Jeremy <%="Flowers"%>
-->
or b)
<!--
Jeremy Flowers
-->
Yes, the expressions will be resolved. The JSP page doesn't even know it is writing in HTML format, so it doesn't interpret anything HTML-specific.
You can also write plain text using JSP, or JSON, or whatever you like.
