Description
Looking through the code, I believe getAsString does not currently
support expressions. That's weird, I believe it should not be difficult
to implement. Nicolas Le Bas
getAsString works with value=
getAsString always returns null with expression=
while insertAttribute works correctly with both value= and expression=
the following layout.jsp file succeeds to get the title which is set via value=, while the css and footer which is set via the el functionality fails
with a nullpointerexception..
=========================================================
the error is:

java.lang.NullPointerException
