Setting the session attribute:
	<!--the session object is implicit, so you don't need to create
it-->
	<%
 
session.setAttribute("arbitary_attribute_name",yourObjectInstance);
	%>

Retrieving your object from the session:
    <%
      YourObject yourObjectInstance =
(YourObject)session.getAttribute("arbitary_attribute_name");
    %>

You can mix and match, i.e. you could set the session attribute from within
a servlet and be able to access it from a jsp.

If you are using the <jsp:useBean tag>, make sure the scope is set to
"session".  By default, <jsp:useBean> defaults to (I think) "page" as its
scope.

p.s.
Make sure that session management is on for your servlet container.  Take a
look at your web.xml for your specific web application and the add following
entry to be safe:

<session-config>
		<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>

This tells the container that this specific web application will hold
session information for up to 30 minutes of user inactivity.
