Getting items out of arrayList

Question

Hi everyone
I have the following scenario:
Have two java class files which gets used to extract data from database and a jsp which display data.
I get the data out of the database, but my problem is displaying it correctly using the jsp which uses JSTL.
The ContactsData.class file extracts the data out of the database and puts it in the Contacts.class class which then gets written to an arraylist which stores the Contacts.class and then returns the ArrayList to the requester.
Here is the code, can someone please help me to manipulate the arraylist to display the right info.
Contacts.class which holds the contacts.
package contacts;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.*;
public class Contacts implements Serializable
     //String varialbes to store the details about the contact
     private String contactName,company, workNumber, cellNumber, faxNumber, email,country;
     //contacts constructor
     public Contacts()
     //method to set the company
     public void setCompany(String company)
          this.company = company;
     //method to set the Contact name
     public void setContactName(String contactName)
          this.contactName = contactName;
     //method to set the work teletphone number
     public void setWorkNumber(String workNumber)
          this.workNumber = workNumber;
     //method to set the cellphone number
     public void setCellNumber(String cellNumber)
          this.cellNumber = cellNumber;
     //method to set the fax number
     public void setFaxNumber(String faxNumber)
          this.faxNumber = faxNumber;
     //method to set the email
     public void setEmail(String email)
          this.email = email;
     //method to set the country
     public void setCountry(String country)
          this.country = country;
     //method to get the company
     public String getCompany()
          return company;
     //method to get the contact name
     public String getContactName()
          return contactName;
     //method to get the work telephone number
     public String getWorkNumber()
          return workNumber;
     //method to get the cellphone number
     public String getCellNumber()
          return cellNumber;
     //method to get the fax number
     public String getFaxNumber()
          return faxNumber;
     //method to get the email
     public String getEmail()
          return email;
     //method to get the country
     public String getCountry()
          return country;
}piece of the contactsData.class class which retrieves the data out of the database and stores it in Contacts.class class and then store the Contacts class in the arrayList which gets returned to the requester.
     public ArrayList getContactList()
          //arrayList to hold the contacts
          contactList = new ArrayList<Contacts>();
          try
               ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM Contacts");     //selecting from the database
               while(rs.next())
                    //creating contacts object
                    contact = new Contacts();
                    //adding details to the Contacts object
                    contact.setContactName(rs.getString(1));
                    contact.setCompany(rs.getString(2));
                    contact.setWorkNumber(rs.getString(3));
                    contact.setCellNumber(rs.getString(4));
                    contact.setFaxNumber(rs.getString(5));
                    contact.setEmail(rs.getString(6));
                    contact.setCountry(rs.getString(7));
                    //adding Contacts object to the Arraylist
                    contactList.add(contact);
          catch(SQLException se)
               System.out.println("Could not retrieve contacts");
          return contactList;     //returning the arraylist
     }The jsp that need to display the contacts within the arraylist, which I don't get right.
