"scope" attribute in jsp:useBean tag

[Yewint Ko]

Hi all,
I am getting complex about the "scope" attribute in jsp:useBean tag.
For example,

<jsp:useBean id="item" class="Item" scope="session" />

In the preceding code, will the jsp engine place "item"(instance of Item) in the session scope? or will the jsp engine search it in the session scope? Someone explain to me please...

(sorry if my question is not clear)

your question is clear but the text is not clear

in fact jsp:useBean tag does both the things . at first it will look in to the specified session for it and then if not available there , it will create it and put it in the specified scope.
