[news.eclipse.platform] Re: JSP in Eclipse WebBrowser?

[Norbert Schoepke <schoepke@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok, thanks,
I know JSP needs a server, and as i include Eclipse help i thought some 
sort of JSP server must be running, isn't that correct?
So is there a way to load a JSP resource, pass it to this server 
infrastructure and get an in-memory URL back that i can pass on to the 
built in WebBrowser?
