I just created an instance variable called "shipValid" in a plain old
Java bean, and asked Eclipse to generate getters and setters (Eclipse created "isShipValid" and "setShipValid"). Then I put a <jsp:useBean id="test"...> in a jsp and tried ${test.shipValid}. It said "false". So that works. I guess your boolean takes a parameter, though. That might be a problem.
