JSP code in a database field

Question

I have a database content driven website, and I would like to know how to get jsp code to work inside the database content field.
Here is the code I use to get the content and return it to the browser:
rs = stmt.executeQuery ("select * from pages where pageid = " + spid);
out.println (rs.getString ("pagecontent"));Here is a example of jsp code that I want to include into the database content field:
<% out.println ("inside html"); %>Currently any jsp code gets treated as text. I would like the jsp to get compiled. Does anyone know how to handle this?
Thanks in advance for any answers.

Usually, the way you do this is by separating the JSP code from the DB code.
Create a Java Bean that gets the page content. Then create a JSP that calls the required method on that Java Bean. Then the JSP only needs to be compiled once by the container, and the database calls are made when needed.
Example:
class DbAccess {
  public String getContent() {
    ... DB access code here ...
}JSP page:
<%= DbAccess.getContent() %>Manuel Amago.
