First your class must be in a package. You would then call your class like:
yourpackagename.yourclassname

Then in your jsp page you put this at the top of the jsp file.

<%@ page import=&quot;yourpackagename.yourclassname&quot; %>

Then do this to get an instance of your class:

<%
  yourclassname b = new yourclassname( args );
%>

Be sure to pass any arguments to your class if required.

Catch my drift?
I hope this helped! ;-)

I don't totally follow what you are trying to say. Could you describe it better please. What were you trying to type &quot;itrate&quot;... I couldn't figure it out.

Later.

I hope this helped! ;-)

if you want to iterate through the changing values of a bean instance try using a custom Tag. To learn about tags try
