How get exception that sent them to jsp page?

[Robert Paris]

I set a JSP page as an error-page, so certain exceptions will send you to that page. How do I get that exception?

An implicit variable called exception is made available to a JSP page which has an explicit page directive to indicate that it is an error-page handler:

<%@ page isErrorPage="true" %>

You can see the actual Java declaration of this exception variable (which is of type Throwable) if you look at the generated _jspService() method.

In case you haven't seen it, the JSP Syntax card is most useful. It is available from java.sun.com
One of things I always have it on the wall in front of me. (I mention it now because I always have to go looking for the implicit objects and tag syntax)
