As I understand it, the isErrorPage attribute controls the code generated for the JSP. If true the code has to provide for creating the "exception" variable, so I suppose setting it false makes the JSP code simpler.
This kind of question can be answered in the Servlet and JSP API docs that you can find on java.sun.com as PDF files.

isErrorPage=false is actually default for all jsp pages.
if you wanna use your jsp page as an error page
you have to set isErrorPage=true. by doing so you will also be able to get the thrown exception by means of exception variable.
