Thanks for your useful feedback.  I was the person enquiring about this a
while ago and thought my email got lost somewhere in the black hole.

However, I have taken the advice of someone and decided to go with all pages
to be .jsp whether they are static or not.  I was getting confused with .js
being server side and .jsp being client-side.  I'm ignorant when it comes to
using jsp pages and scripting.

Thanks for your assistance.

Regards
Felicia

Assuming she was talking about jsp, then yes, she could get away with just
using jsp pages. The issue she is asking about is best practice. Many
people consider it best practice to go with a single way of serving a
site. Don't mix static and dynamic. But since the site is going to be a
mix anyway, then it seems safe to have at least two extensions - perhaps
htm and jsp.
