How to Convert JSP to HTML in Dreamweaver

According to the official Oracle website, JavaServer Pages technology is a "simplified, fast way to create dynamic web content." It is completely compatible with HTML documents, allowing you to change an HTML file's file extension to JSP and a JSP file's file extension to HTML without any issues. You can use this compatibility to convert a JSP Web page to an HTML Web page in Dreamweaver using the application's "Find and Replace" function.

Instructions

1. Double-click the Dreamweaver program icon to launch the program. Click the "Edit" menu and select the "Find and Replace..." option.

2. Click the arrow to the right of the "Find In:" heading and select the "Folder" option. Click the folder icon, locate the folder that contains the Web page that you want to convert and double-click the folder to select it.

3. Type "jsp" in the space labeled "Find:" and type "html" in the space labeled "Replace:."

4. Click the "Replace All" button to replace all of the instances of "jsp" with "html" and convert the JSP page to an HTML page.
