Implicit Object	Description
pageContext	The PageContext object.

sessionScope	A Map of all the objects that have session scope.

param	A Map of all the form parameters that were passed to your JSP page (for example, the HTML <input name="myName" type="text"/> is passed to your JSP page as a form parameter).
paramValues	HTML allows for multiple values for a single form parameter. This is a Map of all the parameters, just like param, but in this object the values are an array containing all of the values for a given parameter in the event that there's more than one.
header	A Map of all the request headers.
headerValues	For the same reasons as paramValues, a headerValues object is provided.
cookie	A Map of all the cookies passed to your JSP. The value returned is a Cookie object.
