I'm using a param component nested inside a commandLink and want to set a controller variable to its value but I can't seem to get it to work.

Here is the visualforce code:

Code:

<apex:commandLink action="{!test}" value="Select">
 <apex:param assignTo="{!myClient}" value="{!client.Full_Name__c}"/>
</apex:commandLink>

And here is the controller code:

Code:

public class MyController
{
 String myClient;

    public void setMyClient(String s)
    {
     myClient = s;
    }
}

I get an error of Unknown property MyController.myClient.

Any ideas?
