[Jetspeed 2.1] Reading session attributes from a Decorator's VM

[V C, Srivathsan]

Hi All,
 
I have a situation where my decorator's VM needs to read an attribute
that has been put into the HTTP session by one of my application's
servlets.
 
I am not able to read the session attribute using any of the following
directives:
 
$session.getAttribute("js_${jetspeed.CurrentFragment.Id}_BreadCrumbHTML"
)
$session.getAttribute("BreadCrumbHTML")
$request.getSession().getAttribute("js_${jetspeed.CurrentFragment.Id}_Br
eadCrumbHTML")
$request.getSession().getAttribute("BreadCrumbHTML")
 
I tried implementing Vitaly's solution from an earlier thread, but it
does not work either :-(

Can anyone help with this problem? What is the right way to read
attributes stored in the HttpSession from a decorator's VM file?
 
Thanks and Regards,
Srivathsan
