Thanks Howard... i wondered if this one would get your attention and glad I can
move onward.
maybe i am getting old in my age but I got 5 years of hard C, 10 years of C++,
12 years of JAVA and a boat load of front end to back end...

the expression and converts it to a String, and the expression is
read-only.
Bind it like this:
itemsPerPage="itemsPerPage"
this binds the component parameter field directly to the containing
page's property, so it's read/writ
