Simple queston on EL syntax

[Cosma Colanicchia]

Hi,

I have a problem with EL syntax and cannot found any good reference or manual on this topic, so I try to ask you :-)
A component in my JSP page <h:outputText value="#{person.fgDismissed == '1' ? 'Yes' : 'No'}"/> that causes the following exception:
javax.faces.FacesException: Cannot get value for _expression_ '#{person.fgDismissed == '1' ? 'Yes' : 'No'}'

Why it doesn't work? If I simply put an <h:outputText value="#{person.fgDismissed}"/> the value is correctly printed...

TIA
Cosma
