There is couple ways about doing that, you could use JBoss EL expression implementation they support method calls with parameters check out Seam, or use similar approach as @digitaljoel suggested.
This is what I created for that purpose, you can call static and static methods, not a great solution but it does the job.

    
          Hello Panel    
      

@Util is just an alias to com.mycomp.util where

**Example 2**

                    
        #{t:call(session, 'org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade', 'removeAttribute', t:params(t:param(item,'')))}      
    

t:call, t:params, t:param are function defined in project-taglib.xml as so

    	
		call
		util.Functions
		java.lang.Object call(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.Object[])
	
	
		param
		.util.Functions
		java.lang.String param(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)
		
	
	
		params
		util.Functions
		java.lang.Object[] params(java.lang.String)
		

Here is the implementation

I hope this helps, btw this was copied/pasted from my project so not sure if I missed anything.
