Thanks a million for your response,
yea both beans are the same one for client end and the other for server end
when set,
I was wondering if I could get away with the one (the session bean) and use
it also client
end but this flakes on me,
<c:out value="${pageContext.session.cookieSession.customerName}"/>
error,
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An error occurred while evaluating custom
action attribute "value" with value
"${pageContext.session.cookieSession.customerName}": Unable to find a value
for "cookieSession" in object of class
"org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade" using operator "."
(null)
however the original problem I got resolved,
in my bean my methods where declared private and not public so now the
original method works fine.
<c:out value="${clientSession.customerName}"/>

consider setting your CustomerSessionBean values differently.
<snip>
CustomerSessionBean sb = new
CustomerSessionBean(scv.getCustomerid(),scv.getCustomerName(),
scv.getCfid(),scv.getCftoken());
session.setAttribute("cookieSession", sb);
request.setAttribute("clientSession",sb);
</snip>
CustomerSessionBean sb = new CustomerSessionBean();
sb.setCustomerid(scv.getCustomerid());
sb.setCustomerName(scv.getCustomerName());
sb.setCfid(scv.getCfid());
sb.setCftoken(scv.getCftoken());
session.setAttribute("cookieSession", sb);
request.setAttribute("clientSession",sb);
OR (if both beans have the same attributes)
import org.apache.commons.beanutils.BeanUtils;
BeanUtils.copyProperties(sb, scv);
session.setAttribute("cookieSession", sb);
request.setAttribute("clientSession",sb);
Hopefully this help.
Shed.

Subject: accessing bean properties in a jsp
Hi, I am a struts newbie,
I am trying to access a bean in my jsp page like this,
<c:out value="${clientSession.customerName}"/>
I validate and then set the bean in my action,
package com.neo.five.ereports;
import org.apache.struts.action.Action;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import javax.servlet.http.Cookie;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;
import com.neo.five.cookies.SessionCookieValidator;
import com.neo.five.beans.CustomerSessionBean;
public final class EreportAction extends Action{
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm
form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response){
//get the session object
HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
//validate the session cookie if session object dows not
exist
Cookie[] cookies = request.getCookies();
SessionCookieValidator scv = new
SessionCookieValidator(cookies);
scv.checkCookie();
//forward to appropriate destination
//if there is a cookie continue
if(scv.hasSessionCookie()){
//check for session object
if (session != null) {
//if session does not exist put bean
into
session that holds the cookie
//values
if(session.getAttribute("cookieSession")==null){
CustomerSessionBean sb = new
CustomerSessionBean(scv.getCustomerid(),scv.getCustomerName(),scv.getCfi
d(),
scv.getCftoken());
session.setAttribute("cookieSession", sb);
request.setAttribute("clientSession",sb);
}
return (mapping.findForward("success"));
}else{
return (mapping.findForward("failure"));
}
}else{
return (mapping.findForward("failure"));
}
}
}
however I am getting this error,
HTTP Status 500 -
