I answered a very similar question on this list Monday. In other words,
the fastest way to find an answer to questions is often to search the
archive for this list:

The problem you see has to do with how Java deals with classes in the
"unnamed package". You can either make your bean part of a package or
use a page directive to import the bean. For more details, see an article
I wrote for O'Reilly that describes this and other common issues:
