Using custom tags allow you to have web developers who know nothing about Java design and build your pages. The custom tags can reference a whole bunch of Java code, but the developer of the actual page doesn't know or care about this. And you canuse custom tags in decent web building tools like Allaire Homesite.

For example, which do you think a HTML savvy (but not java savvy) web developer would understand better (forgive syntax)?

a) <% someJavaCode(); %>
b)

For an example, take a look at the Struts package from the Jakarta Project (jakarta.apache.org) that provides a Model-View-Controller architecture on Servlets/JSP.
