You don't need the import, or the scriptlet, or the 'type' attribute in the
<logic:iterate> tag, and you should be able to use the 'name' and 'property'
attributes instead of the 'collection' attribute with a scriptlet. That is,
given what you said about your 'floorplan' object, the following should be
all you need:
<logic:iterate name="floorplan" property="hotSpots" id="hotspot">
The top is <bean:write name="hotspot" property="top" />
The width is <bean:write name="hotspot" property="width" />
The height is <bean:write name="hotspot" property="height" />
The left is <bean:write name="hotspot" property="left" />
</logic:iterate>
Hope this helps.
