Answer / madan mohan

Servlets are server side components used to develop server
side applications.. servlet acts as a controller between
two or more pages...if any changes made in web.xml, we need
to redeploy the application

where as Jsp are java server pages which is combination of
html and jsp tags, directly run at explorer page, no need
to compile

both having similar life cycles like init(), doPOst() or
doGet() and destroy()...
