Problem with redirection from a JSP

[Anirvan Majumdar]

I am calling a Java class from within the Object tag(of a JSP) using the <param src =""> tag. However if my java class throws any exception I am unable to send the control to another HTML page which is supposed to display the error messages.

A bit of the code snippet to give some understanding :

<object id="Pdf" classid="clsid:CA8A9780-280D-11CF-A24D-444553540000" width="100%" height="92%" align="CENTER">
<param name="SRC" value="display.java" />
</object>

If display.java throws an exception, how can i forward the control to another HTML/JSP page from the catch block of the java code ??

Have you tried putting one of these on your page?
<%@ page errorPage="" %>

yea Marc, i did include the <@ page errorpage=""> tag. However, once the error is generated in the java class, it just gets caught and no error is generated for the JSP to direct to the error page. Any other suggestions??

Do you see any error code (or stack trace) in your browser?

If yes, simply add the error code (or the exception) in the "<error-page>" section of your web.xml
