Custom bean in EL

Question

hi
i want to acces custom bean in jsp using expression language:
<c:forEach var="emp" items="empList">
        <tr>
          <td>${emp.getName}</td>
        //etc.        
        </tr>
      </c:forEach>where empList is LinkedList<Employee> (stored this way: session.setAttribute("empList", list);)
i always get this error:
javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: The class 'java.lang.String' does not have the property 'getName'.
thanks for help

Two mistakes:
1) The 'empList' is a String. You apparently need ${empList}.thanks - i am just beginner
2) The ${emp.getName} expects a getGetName() method in the object type behind 'emp'. Unless you actually coded it that way (why then?), you should be using ${emp.name}.thanks for a tip
