id="id"

Specifies the identifier of an instance that references the user attribute value of a logged-in user. This tag attribute can also be used for the name of the script variable that references this instance. This instance has a page scope, which means that it can be referenced within the JSP page in which it is created. Therefore, the specified identifier should be unique for each page scope. If the id tag attribute is omitted, the obtained user attribute value is embedded into a JSP page by using the toString method.
