Too many jsp pages in a web application
Hi Experts,
I was working on a web application, which basically helps user to see some data in tabular form along with related line charts.
I am new to java, and for the simplicity, I went on creating a new jsp page for every new Application that we wanted to display. Now my jsp count is already close to 70 and with some more applications heading my way, it will reach somewhere around 100 (I know a big stupid design)
I dont have a single clue, how to fix this kind of problem. Can you please provide me your valuable suggestions.
I have attached one of the same page, where the chart itself is rendered in a seperate page, the table below the chart is another seperate. They are both included in the container (main page).

Actually the global structure is wrong as per your definition. Even for a light change I have to go through all the jsp pages, which is so tiring and error prone. moreover its violating the web application development rules.

Hi Murali,
Thanks for your suggestions :-)
>> Whereever you have included the page using <%@include ..... (used in a single page and not included in multiple pages) then you can just move those jsp contents to the target jsp with few or no bugs.
I have used <%@include... for header, footer and left navigation panel for now. Other stuff like the chart and tabular table below it, I am using jsp:include tag for that.
>> using Sitemesh
How tough would be to implement Sitemesh now? Will it be helpful for me in future if we decide to change the appearance of the website? I am a newbie with java

Thanks for the descriptive answers Murali.
I will try to run Sitemesh... you and other EE experts can help me run it.
none of my page has big load of data to display, so I guess sitemesh would be fine? right
