++ JavaServer Pages (JSP) FAQ: http://www.jguru.com/faq/JSP
I need to trap all kinds 500 error on my jsp page. I have tried the <%@ page
errorPage="myerror.jsp"> but it only works on selected errors. How can I trap all
errors, including syntax errors?

I know I can get JP tag attributes with setXXX() method but I want to know if it is
possible to modify attribute values within a tag handler.
<p>
For example:<br>
I want to do iterator tag that iterates over a list and at each iteation it can
assign the current iterated value to one of its attributes and cause the JSP page to
display different values at each iteration.
Is there any way to do this?

Is it possible to view which web server or servlet engine is used: IIS, iPlanet etc.
on a JSP page? Just like System.getProperty(os.name) for the operating system?

How do I stop a JSP based download adding a newline to the first character of a file?
I am using JSP to set a Content-Disposition in order to keep IE from automatically
opening Excel/Word/Acrobat/etc when it sees a file type it recognizes. However, when
I use ServletOutputStream to do this, for some reason I end up with a newline (ASCII
hex 0A) character at the beginning of my file (I discovered this with a hex editor).
This causes Word and Excel to blow up when I try to open the files because they can't
cope with the extra character. (I am using the ATG Dynamo Application Server and am
hoping this is not an artifact of the implementation.)
<p>
This is what my JSP looks like:
<pre>
<%
// fname is the file name
File f = new File(fname);
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(f);
ServletOutputStream outs = response.getOutputStream();
int bufferSize = 4096;
byte[] ioBuffer = new byte[bufferSize];
byte[] lastBuffer; // last buffer
long counter = 0; // how many bytes we have gotten through
long fileSize = f.length();
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" + shortname);
response.setContentType("application/download");
// in a big file, use big buffer chunks
while (fileSize > (counter + bufferSize))
{
in.read(ioBuffer);
outs.write(ioBuffer);
counter += bufferSize;
}
// add final chunk if the fileSize does not happen to be divisible by the bufferSize
if (fileSize > counter)
{
lastBuffer = new byte[ (int) (fileSize - counter) ];
in.read(lastBuffer);
outs.write(lastBuffer);
}
outs.flush();
outs.close();
in.close();
%>
</pre>
I also tried to do this:
<pre>
String headers = "Content-Disposition:attachment;filename=" + shortname + "\r\n" +
"Content-Type: application/download\r\n\r\n";
outs.write(headers.getBytes());
</pre>
in place of the setHeader() and setContentType() but I end up just opening a webpage
with that string followed by the bytes from the file I want downloaded.

Are there any restrictions placed on applets loaded from HTML pages generated from
servlets / JSP pages?
