No, thats not what I wanted to do. I have to call the function in the bean
but using a string variable that contains the function name.

For instance,

<%
String temp = "function" + "name" + "()"; // This is a simple example of
what I need to do.
%>
<TD><%=temp%></TD> -- This should ideally execute the function and get me
the results. I would like to know if there is something similar to "exec"
or "eval" to do this.

Thanks for your time,
PD
