title: Accessing a JSTL / EL variable inside a Scriptlet
body: <p>The following code causes an error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;c:set var="test" value="test1"/&gt;
  &lt;%
      String resp = "abc"; 
      resp = resp + ${test};  //in this line I got an  Exception.
      out.println(resp);
  %&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why can't I use the expression language "${test}" in the scriptlet?</p>
