JSP reloading problem
I have several JSPs that use data retrieved from the same servlet and its data access beans. Whenever I change the servlet or any data access bean, the JSP does not reload. Thus, my page remains the same. Can you tell me an easy way to solve this problem without restarting the application server?

JSPs are cached and reused by the application server or servlet engine until they are modified. In order to get the application server or servlet engine to reload the JSP, you will most likely have to modify or touch the JSP.
