Problem reading JSTL in the JSP page

Hello All,

I have two jsp files. One AccountStatus.jsp page where I defined the variables ReportStartMonth, ReportStartYear, ReportStartDay. I am initializing these values to default values for the first time users logs in. Then I would include one file called as SingleDateSelectBox.jsp page. Where I would read these variables. For some reason I am not able to read all three variables that I set in the AccountStatus.jsp. Please help me if you guys know where I am going wrong.

I am getting ReportStartMonth on the SingleDateSelectBox.jsp page, when I try to compare with using

<c:choose>

<c:when test="${ReportStartMonth == '1'}" >

<option value="1" selected>Jan

</c:when>

<c:otherwise>

<option value="1">Jan

</c:otherwise>

</c:choose>

always this goes to else part which is otherwise clause.

Can you please tell me what is going on here.

thanks..

AccountStatus.jsp code..
