JSP is a Java based technology for carrying out the database(Eg: Orcale,SQL,MS Access) access in the web applications.Where as XSLT is of presenting the xml data in the web application,as you have noted in your post.They are different.

Thanks for the reply but I have one doubt. The database access would be done by EJB part but I didn't understand how JSP shall directly access the database without going through the EJB layer. Please clarrify this too.
