No there is NO default value for ContentType.

You got to set the ContentType as the first thing in your servlet code.

As far as JSP is concerned,

The initial response content type is set to the TYPE value of the contentType
attribute of the page directive. If the page doesn�t provide this attribute, the initial content type is �text/html� for JSP pages in standard syntax and �text/xml� for JSP documents in XML syntax.
