Re: XSL vs. JSP

I've tried generating forms with XML using JSP and
have had a miserable time with it.

I've had similar problems with "web forms" in
.NET.

The problem is these environments try to make
life easier on the developer by supporting a 
syntax that automatically binds form elements to JSP
variables when the form is submitted.  Unfortunately
with the products I used (ATG Dynamo, ASP.NET, for
instance), the binding syntax is actually used to
generate code.  This code generation step is
slow and is not meant to run more than, say, once
an hour.  But by generating forms on the
fly I needed to run the compiler once per
page view.  For high traffic sites this
does not work.

To build web-based forms using HTML, which is better -

a) JSP + XML
or
b) XSL + XML

We are currently arguing this issue at our company. We are still not sure
which would work better. Any insight is appreciated.
