Hi. Na, even in Java 5 there is nothing for that. I had that problem in the past, too, and I always ended with Aarons solution.
So, what I would do is implementing this 'loop-through-exception-chain' algorithm in an generic way and put it somewhere to stdext and have it work with differnet formats (raw ascii text for console and logging with \n as newlines and html for web with <br /> as newlines). Why? Maybe we can replace that ugly 'exception' webpage in the long term with something nicer-looking and, more important, with something more informative. Christoph
