<bean:page />

The <bean:page /> tag is used to retrieve the value of an identified implicit JSP object, which it stores in the page context of the current JSP. The retrieved object will be stored in the page scoped scripting variable named by the id attribute. The <bean:page /> tag has no body and supports two attributes, as shown in Table 20.6.

Table 20.6: <bean:page /> Tag Attributes

Attribute	Description
id	Identifies the name of the scripting variable that is being made available with the value of the specified page context property. (Required)
property	Specifies the implicit object being retrieved from the current page context. The property attribute must be set to one of these implicit object values: application, config, request, response, or session. (Required)

This code snippet contains a simple example of using the <bean:page /> tag:

 <bean:page  property="session"/> 

In this example, we are retrieving the implicit session object and storing this reference in the scripting variable sessionVar.
