Actually i dnt know whether it is correct or not.. but i did like this.. I had taken two different properties for year, moth and date in FormBean and i retrieved both the attributes.

DOB = <bean:write name="employeeform" property="dob_year" />
<bean:write name="employeeform" property="dob_month" />
<bean:write name="employeeform" property="dob_date" />
<br />

DOB = <bean:write name="employeeform" property="emp_dob" /><br />

You can write:

<bean:define id="dob" name="employeeform" property="emp_dob" type="java.lang.String"/> 
<%String DOB = dob%>
