As Brian pointed out, the first one is a runtime exception, and the second is a compiler error. Runtime exceptions can be caught using the onError event handler in Application.cfc or using CFTRY/CFCATCH. Compiler errors can be caught using the site-wide error handler or the CFERROR tag using TYPE="REQUEST". That said, you should not need to catch compiler errors. Those should never make it past the first stage of development, much less into production. A compiler error will prevent the page from ever running successfully - if you have one, it means you've never tried to run the page before!
