There are (at least) a couple options. One would be to create a property like:

numberFormat={0,number,#.##}

And then use <fmt:message>:

<fmt:message key="numberFormat">
  <fmt:param value="${aNumber}"/>
</fmt:message>

Another would be to leverage the fact that the pattern attribute of
<fmt:formatNumber> accepts an EL expression. So, you'd load the pattern and
then do:

<fmt:formatNumber value="${aNumber}" pattern="${numberPattern}"/>

There are all kinds of ways you could load the pattern, but one would be:

<fmt:message key="numberPattern" var="numberPattern"/>
