Undefined variable error
I defined the two variables upper_limit and lower_limit in my bean but I get an undefined variable message when I try to use them in my jsp page. Can anyone see what the problem is?
JSP code:
I'm thinking of a number between <%=lower_limit%> and <%=upper_limit%>.<p>
error message:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSPC:\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\work\localhost_8080%2Fexamples\_0002fjsp_0002fnum_0002fnumguess_00031_0002ejspnumguess1_jsp_0.java:157: Undefined variable: lower_limit
out.print(lower_limit);
^

If these are defined in your bean this doesn't mean that you can access them directly from your JSP page.
try the <jsp:getProperty name="beanName" property="lower_limit"/> and <jsp:getProperty name="beanName" property="upper_limit"/>

I believe that's what these error codes are suggesting, not that you haven't defined the variable in your Bean, but that you haven't gotten the variable from the Bean.

Hope that helps some,

I tried using getProperty but now I get the error message below:
Cannot find a method to read property 'lowerLimit' in a bean of type 'num.NumberGuessBean'
jsp code:
I'm thinking of a number between <jsp:getProperty name="numguess" property="lowerLimit"/> and <jsp:getProperty name="numguess" property="upperLimit"/>.<p>
I've defined my methods as getLowerLimit(), getUpperLimit()...
The variables are defined as lowerLimit and upperLimit.
