Yes and no. I'd say depends upon how much 'core' java you know, and what your knowledge of general computer science is. You can get by with little experience and learn the basics - by the way servlets and jsp are java, so its not necessarily fair to classify them as something different - but without any concept of things such as object oriented programming, abstraction, design patterns, data structures, etc...you'll be able to get by writing something, but it might not be very maintainable or efficient.

Thank you very much for your reply copeg ,

I am very happy to see the first reply from this our forum member , nice to meet you copeg .

Actually i am still learning the basic elements of core java and its basic attributes , now i am exactly in the topic called "Inheritance " . since i am a computer science graduate, i know the concepts of object oriented programming, abstraction, design patterns and data structures .

So now , is there any possible for me to understand and learn servlet and jsp ? :) , if yes , please please suggest me some good books for servlet and jsp , so that a noob like me can understand easily :) . thanks in advance buddy :)

To start JSP and Servlets you should be comfortable with core Java and basic HTML. Head First is a good book for beginners.

For HTML and Java Script you can refer to w3schools.com and http://www.roseindia.net/

Right - the only thing they have in common is the word 'Java'.

Yes. It's a simple scripting language.

You can learn JSP and Java script together. JSP is Server side and Java script is client side language. Use both together .
All the best
