On your doStartTag you create the object you want to store, then use the
implicitly defined pageContext object to store it:
MyBean someBean = ....
....
pageContext.setAttribute("theNameYouExposed", someBean, REQUEST_SCOPE) //or
SESSION_SCOPE or CONTEXT_SCOPE or PAGE_SCOPE
or
pageContext.setAttribute("theNameYouExposed", someBean) to store it in the
page scope
then in the recipient tag you retrieve it with:
pageContext.getAttribute("theNameYouExposed",REQUEST_SCOPE) // or....
or simply pageContext.getAttribute("theNameYouExposed") if it is in page
scope.

Thanks for the answers, that's what I feared...
Can some give a simple example of how to do the bean stuff mentioned above?
