Description Eric Jain 2003-05-23 14:51:11 UTC 
It seems that is is not possible to access a property of a class that 
implements the Collection interface. For example:

  <jstl:out value="${myCollection.property}"/>

results in the tag complaining about not being able to convert a string to an 
int. It would be usefull if the tag checked whether or not such a property 
actually exists before complaining.

This behavior is according to spec (see section A.3.4).
