I need to access a property of a bean whose name is stored in a variable using EL in a JSP page.
If I were to access a property named “description”, then I would go ${bean.description}, but since the name of the property is stored in the variable “name”, I have no idea how I would do it in EL.
Is this possible? If not, does anyone have a workaround?
Thanks much.
Use the form
${bean[name]}. More explanation is available in § JSP.2.3.4 of the Java ServerPages 2.0 Specification.
