I was
unable to get this to work and however the solution that Mike C. gave
worked. Thanks for the help.

Yes, you can now do:
<ww:property
value="session['user.key'].firstName"/>

viewing Session attributes?
Patrick, did you add support for accessing items from the session to
the _expression_ language?
I hear what you are saying but my web application spans multiple
action classes. I guess I could provide that method in all of my
action classes but would this be considered best practice? Of course
I could create my own extension of ActionSupport which has only that
one method then have all of my Actions extend from it, but what
alternatives do I have?
Thanks
Kris

Kris,
What you should do here is provide
a getter method in your action, eg:
public User getUser() {
return ActionContext.getSession().get(“user.key”); }
And then in
your views you can do user.firstName and it will use getUser() to pull
the value out of the session.
Cheers,
Mike

words:
After a
user logs in I place their User object in the session (thanks to the
ActionContext.getSession()) This works great except I also have
in my header on all of my JSP pages a tag like this
<ww:property
value="user.FirstName" />
This tag works great right after I
login because the property tag pulls from the ValueStack.
However on the next action invocation (or any there after) that
value is not longer in the ValueStack (because a ActionContext only
lives as long as a request) All that seems fine, but I need a
way to get my value/attribute out of my session object onto the
page.
I could
create an Interceptor that did nothing but pull the value from the
Session and place it in the stack on every invocation but that just
doesn't seem right.
Is my placement of the user object in the session wrong?
Should I use some sort of IoC impl. and specify the object to be
session scope in the components.xml?
Should I create a new tag
that pulls from the session instead of the stack?
Thanks
Kris
