    This document discusses error and exception handling in JSP. There are two types of errors that can occur: translation time errors during initial compilation, and request time errors during subsequent requests that result in exceptions. Translation time errors return a 500 error, while request time exceptions can be caught and handled within the JSP code. Exceptions can be handled using Java exception mechanisms, the page directive's errorPage attribute, or by defining error pages in the deployment descriptor.

    Error and exception handling in JSP:

     We already know about error and exception.


     Errors can occur in a JSP in two different phases of its life. 
     Translation time errors
     JSP Request Time Error
    Translation Time Error
    • This type of Error occurs during the initial request. When a JSP page is
    first requested and goes through the initial translation from
    a JSP source file into a corresponding Servlet class file.
    • These errors are usually the result of compilation failures and are
    known as Translation Time Errors.
    • They are reported to the requesting Client with an Error Status Code
    500 or Server Error and usually contain the reported compilation
    error. 
    • Translation Time Errors are handled by the JSP Engine. 
    JSP Request Time Error
    •  This type of Error occurs during subsequent requests. These Errors
    are Run-Time errors that can occur in either the body of the JSP page
    or in some other object that is called from the body of the JSP Page. 
    • Request Time Errors result in an Exception being thrown.
    • These Exceptions can be caught and appropriately handled in the
    body of the calling JSP, which would be the end of the error.
    • Those Exceptions that are not caught result in the forwarding of
    the Client request, including the Uncaught Exception, to the Error
    Page specified by the offending JSP.
    • Exception can be handled in JSP in three ways:
    a) Java Exception Handling mechanism
    b) Dealing with exception with page directive
    c) Dealing with exception in Deployment Descriptor.
    JSP Exception handling with try catch:

    Jsp exception handling with page directive:
    The two attributes of page directive errorPage and isErrorPage are used to deal
    with exception.
