Hi,
What exactly is the tomcat. Is it an App Server. I do know that the tomcat contains only the WebContainer. A question like what is tomcat?

Tomcat is an application server that enables you to run a JVM that translates the JSP tags to readable HTML commands for the browser.

So to make it clear, tomcat takes care of the entire command execution of the JSP tags that are enclosed in the JSP page. And only send HTML back to the client.

Hope this helps you.

Tomcat is a servlet container. It also includes a JSP pre-processor, which translates JSP's into servlets for execution. It also includes it's own relaitvely simplified web server. That's about it.
