Why JSF can not get the session's var?

Question

I have set the session var in my managed-bean, in my jsf page I can use the <% session.getAttribute( "var" )%> to get the session var, and
the JSF EL( #{ var } ) do so, but #{session.var} or #{sessionSCope.var} can't return the session var's value. I am using Resin3.1.1 and JSF1.2.
Any one can help me, thanks.

public class EnvSetting {
private String skinFamily = "";
private String lang = "en";
public void setskinFamily(String skin)
skinFamily = skin;
if (skin.equals("Test1"))
Locale lc= new Locale("ar", "JO","WINDOWS");
Locale.setDefault(lc);
setLang("ar");
else
Locale lc= new Locale("en", "UK","WINDOWS");
Locale.setDefault(lc);
setLang("en");
public String getskinFamily()
if (skinFamily.length() == 0)
if (Locale.getDefault().getLanguage().equalsIgnoreCase("EN"))
return "Test" ;
else
return "Test1" ;
else
return skinFamily;
public void setLang(String l){
lang = l;
public String getLang(){
return lang;
