Actually Javascript and JSP are completely different things.

JSP is a server side language to generate dynamic content. It consists of java code in scriptlets and the web server containing the servlet-container on receiving a request translates and compiles the jsp pages and sends the generated HTML to the browser as a response.

Whereas javascript is used for client-side scripting i.e. it is interpreted at the browser

JavaScript reaches out to more platform than JSP. It can run on the browser, on the Server (http://www.jaxer.org/), and on the desktop via console (http://www.jsdb.org/). From my experience JSP is solely for web development on the server.

Also JavaScript is a language. JSP is a web framework based of the Java programming language.
