You can't nest expressions like that but you can use the "overwrite"
attribute of <event-arg>:
<event-handler event="showLesson" access="public">
<event-arg name="lessonId" value="${properties.defaultLessionId}"
overwrite="false" />
<call-method bean="lessonService"
method="getLessonById"args="lessonId=${event.lessonId}"
resultArg="lesson" />
<view-page name="myView" contentArg="mainContent" />
<execute subroutine="standardLayout" />
</event-handler>
By default, "overwrite" is always true. However, when set to "false" --
the event-arg acts like cfparam.
