I have this scriptlet working in a JSP and was wondering how I can put
it in a class file and call it in my JSP.

<jsp:useBean id="pageinfo" class="mypackage.PageInfo" scope="session"/

...
<%
if (pageinfo!=null) {
  if (pageinfo.isFirst()) {
      out.println("<a href=first.jsp>first</a>");
    }
}
%>

Would this be close because I am not sure how to create the method?

//in the class file
package mypackage;
import mypackage.pageinfo;

public String mymethod()
{
if (pageinfo!=null) {
  if (pageinfo.isFirst()) {
      out.println("<a href=first.jsp>first</a>");
    }
}
}

Then call it like this in JSP?

<% mymethod(); %>

I dont have JSTL or Struts on this Tomcat 4.1.27 container that I am
working on.
