Something Simple

[Troy Bull]

Greetings:

I have an attribute in a backing bean and I want to display it in a jsp 
"inline".  I tried to use OutputText and it doesn't seem to work 
correctly.

Here is what I want to do:

<f:verbatim>
<h2>Welcome #{authedUser.firstName}</h2>
</f:verbatim>

This doesn't work.  So I tried

<f:verbatim>
<h2>Welcome             <af:outputText value="#{authedUser.firstName}"
                           binding="#{backing_mainMenu.outputText1}"
                           id="outputText1"/></h2>
</f:verbatim>

This doesnt work either.  The first one prints out the #{authedUs..., 
the second one prints out the firstName but "outside" the h2 tag.

Thanks
