<h1>JSP 2.0 Expression Language - Implicit Objects</h1>
<hr>
This example illustrates some of the implicit objects available
in the Expression Language. The following implicit objects are
available (not all illustrated here):
<ul>
<li>pageContext - the PageContext object</li>
<li>pageScope - a Map that maps page-scoped attribute names to
their values</li>
<li>requestScope - a Map that maps request-scoped attribute names
to their values</li>
<li>sessionScope - a Map that maps session-scoped attribute names
to their values</li>
<li>applicationScope - a Map that maps application-scoped attribute
names to their values</li>
<li>param - a Map that maps parameter names to a single String
parameter value</li>
<li>paramValues - a Map that maps parameter names to a String[] of
all values for that parameter</li>
<li>header - a Map that maps header names to a single String
header value</li>
<li>headerValues - a Map that maps header names to a String[] of
all values for that header</li>
<li>initParam - a Map that maps context initialization parameter
names to their String parameter value</li>
<li>cookie - a Map that maps cookie names to a single Cookie object.</li>
</ul>
