This, of course, is the preferred way of going about it.

I think this depends largely on how much XHTML you have in your JSP you have,
and how much of it is generated using out.print(). If 95% of the JSP document
is XHTML and you only have a few JSP scripting elements, you're probably
better off using xml output method and D-O-E.
