Heh, Brian you were having the same problem I was.  I posted yesterday with subject: 
"[RT Expr] for
html:text property"

Craig M replied quoting the JSP spec (Third download button on page:
http://www.jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr053/), to quote section 
JSP.2.13.1 Request
Time Attribute Values, paragraph 2 describing the user of <%=%> in request-time 
attribute values:

<quote>
The expression must appear by itself (multiple expressions, and mixing of expressions 
and string
constants are not permitted).
</quote>

Craig.
