Hi,

Using <c:set> we can store values and object and also in different scope.
some examples,
<c:set var="place" value="Chennai"/>
<c:set var="name1" value="value1" scope="page" />
<c:set var="com_mycompany_name2" value="value2" scope="request" />
<c:set var="com_mycompany_name3" value="value3" scope="session" />
<c:set var="com_mycompany_name4" value="value4" scope="application" />

Hi,
Try like this
<%
String strCity="XYZ";
pageContext.setAttribute( "city", strCity);
%>

then

<c:set var="home" value="<%= strCity %>" scope="session"/>

(or)

<c:set var="home" value="${strCity}" scope="session"/>

Hope this will helps you.

Hi,
To sort out the propbelm remove all jstl tags except the follwing.
<%
String name="neeraj";
pageContext.setAttribute("name1",name);
%>
name1:<c ut value="${name1}" />
<br>

If the error agin occurs give me your whole jsp file.
