Try mmm-mode.  Found http://mmm-mode.sourceforge.net/.  This was drilled
to on the mother of all elisp contributions,
http://www.anc.ed.ac.uk/~stephen/emacs/ell.html

It is a package, so take a look at the the file, mmm-sample.el.  It will
have a sample of for jsp's.  Add a line in your .emacs like so,

  (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.jsp\\'" . html-helper-mode))

Then, add the extensions in the samples file.  Hit `f' on a blah.jsp and
see if you get what you need.
