i don't believe that is correct.

in JSP if you type 

<%! function myFunction1(String x, int y) {

return; 
}

function myFunction2(String x, int y) {

return; 
}


%>

this creates a function outside of the service method.
of the resulting servlet. 
-- if you want to use these functions in different
places I believe you can make these functions an
include
