Hi Dennis, Laurie thanks for the prompt reply.
I found following code on jsffaq.com, I will try it work for me.
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
String userName =
(String)fc.getApplication().createValueBinding("#{Person.userName}").getValue(fc);
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>Person</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>demo.PersonBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
<managed-property>
<property-name>userName</property-name>
<property-class>java.lang.String</property-class>
<value/>
</managed-property>
<managed-bean>
Thanks again, Yogesh
