Then you don't want to learn JSP right now. I am not trying to
discourage you but you have to take things one step at a time. learning
the so called standard edition of java is essential before you start
learning the enterprise edition. JSP is just a part J2EE. Some years
back I had the misfortune of working with a bunch of people who had
plunged into JSP and servlets without learning j2se first and, it
certainly wasn't pleasent.

The real foundation is to learn J2SE.

I think it will have j2se as a requirement. It may interest you to know
that you can take the sun java web component developer exam only after
passing the java programmer exam.
