You *can* do this in JavaScript.  I'm not an expert at this, but you can access java 
classes from JavaScript.  Try this in your java script:

System.err.println("This is a test.");

Then look in your Java Console.  You have just invoked a method on a Java object.  You 
should be able to access your bean using the same JavaScript syntax:

com.package.path.MyBean.method();
