What is the difference between JSP EL and JavaScript? Are they both same?

They both are used to "put dynamic content into the static html pages"?

They could not be more different.

JSP EL is an expression language for generating dynamic content on the server before the HTML is sent off to the browser.

JavaScript is a client-side scripting language that executes in the browser after it has received the HTML page.
