Hello All,
I have one doubt regarding JSP page directive attributes.
Suppose i have 2 JSP pages a.jsp and b.jsp, in the a.jsp i want to set the isErrorPage=false, in b.jsp i want to set the errorPage="a.jsp", in this case, if some exeption occures in the b.jsp, then what will happen? Generally inorder to work the errorPage work fine, the a.jsp's isErrorPage=true.
Please explain me abt this.

thanks & Regards,
Sri.

in your a.jsp
the isErrorPage="false"
but in b.jsp your are giving errorPage="a.jsp"

since a is not a offical error page, though youe point to it in b.jsp
the container wont use a.jsp and will throw a stact trace in the borwser !

Since you don't declare the error page officially by saying isErrorPage = "true", the container will trouble you when you try compiling it.

If any exception is raised on b.jsp then it will show the a.jsp only.
But in a.jsp if you specify isErrorPage="fasle" then you can't access the JSP implicit exception object.

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
