That's what I can't understand. Should my call to the bean be a valid
non-static code to get that value? I am new to java & javabeans. The
statement you wrote is exactly my statement in the JSP:

> <yourbeanname>.getTempFilePath()
Is the same as:

> RadTicketsFileDownloadForEmailAttachmentBean.getTempFilePath()


How else do I make this statement in a non-static way?
