15. What Do You Mean by DTD IN XML?
DTD means Document Type Definition.
DTD file is similar to CSS file, because DTD also contains only styles. DTD contains various styles which are to be applied in XML document.
Like .CSS file .DTD file also should be linked with XML program.
Styles in XML program should be save with .xsl (Xml Style Sheet

Active Server Pages (ASP) is a server-side scripting technology that can be used to create dynamic and interactive web applications.
19. What are the ASP objects?
1.Application -It manages your web application.
2.Session -It manages and tracks individual user sessions.
3.Server -It controls behavior of your web server
4.Response -It transmits information from the web server to web browser
5.Request -It retrieves information from the browser for processing at the server.
20. What is global.asa file?
The global.asa file is a Active Server Application file you can track and manage the application and session events, variables and objects. When you start the application the server will load the global.asa file into memory.
21. Define response object and list its methods.
The response object transmits information from the web server to browser. Methods are:

UNIT V SERVLETS AND JSP
1. Define servlet.
A servlet is a java class that a web server instantiates when the server is started. A particular method is called in this instance when the server receives certain HTTP requests.
2. What are servlet life cycle methods?
The methods of servlet life cycle are
• INIT()
• SERVICE()
• DESTROY()
3. What are servlet listener classes?
Listener classes is used to initialize a web application consisting of multiple servlets rather than a single servlet and can be created and registered with the server so that they will be called when certain event occurs, including life-cycle events.
4. What are the functions of doGet() and doPost() methods?
doGet()-Browser will append the query string it constructs to the form’s action URL and performs an HTTP GET using the resulting URL.
DOPOST() – Same query string will be constructed , but it will be passed to the server via the body of the HTTP request rather than as part of the URL.
5. How the session is terminated?
By default the time interval for a session is 20 minutes.
The session can also be forced to terminate by calling invalidate()
method.
The time interval for the session can be set using setMaxInactiveInterval()
method

8. Explain the difference between get request and post request type. (APRIL/MAY 2008)
The HTML specifications technically define the difference between "GET" and "POST" so that former means that form data is to be encoded (by a browser) into a URL while the latter means that the form data is to appear within a message body.
9. List out the methods of Cookie class.
Cookie, getName(), getValue(), setMaxAge()
10. What is JSP?
JSP, an extension of servlet technology simplifies the delivery of dynamic web content.
They enable web application programmers to create dynamic content by
reusing predefined components and by interacting with components using server side scripting.
JSP programmers can reuse JavaBeans and create custom tag libraries that encapsulate complex, dynamic functionality
11. What are JSP scripting components?
JSP scripting components include Scriptlets, comments, expressions, declarations and escape sequences.
12. List out the scope of Implicit Objects
Implicit objects have four scopes: application, page, request and session.
o The JSP and servlet container application owns object with application scope. Any servlet or JSP can manipulate such objects.
o Objects with page scope exist only in the page that defines them.
Each page has its own instances of the page-scope implicit
objects.
o Objects with request scope exist for the duration of the request. Objects with session scope exist for the client’s entire browsing session.
13. What are JSP Standard Actions?
JSP standard actions provide JSP implementers with access to several of the most common tasks performed in a JSP, such as including content from other resources, forwarding requests to other resources and interacting with JavaBeans. JSP containers process actions at request time.
Actions are delimited by
<jsp:action> and </jsp:action>, where action is the standard action name.
14. What is the use of <jsp: useBean> Action?
Action <jsp: useBean> enables a JSP to manipulate a Java object. This action creates a Java object or locates an existing object for use in the JSP. If attributes class and beanName are not specified, the JSP container attempts to locate an existing object of the type specified in attribute type.
15. What are the ASP objects?
1. Application - It manages your web application.
2. Session - It manages and tracks individual user sessions.
3. Server - It controls behavior of your web server
4. Response - It transmits information from the web server to web browser 5.Request -It retrieves information from the browser for processing at the server.
16. What is global.asa file?
The global.asa file is a Active Server Application file you can track and manage the application and session events, variables and objects. When you start the application the server will load the global.asa file into memory.
17. Define JSP.
Java Server Pages (JSP) is simple technology used to generate dynamic
HTML on the server side.
18. Define Directives.
Directives are JSP elements that provide global information about an entire JSP page.
19. Write down the various attributes for the page directives in JSP.
