I originally had errorPage declarations at the top of all my JSP pages, 
which worked.  Then I heard about the <error-page> element in web.xml.  
So I replaced all of the individual errorPage declarations with:

 <error-page>
   <exception-type>java.lang.Exception</exception-type>
   <location>/errorPage.jsp</location>
 </error-page>
in my application's web.xml, and it worked fine.  Next I tried

 <error-page>
   <exception-code>404</exception-code>
   <location>/login.jsp</location>
 </error-page>
to intercept bad URLs and redirect them to the login page.  However, 
THIS does not work.  Bad URLs just get the standard Tomcat 404 error 
page as always.  I've Googled the problem and found "it doesn't work for 
me," "but it DOES work for me," "but it does NOT work for me," and so 
on.  Is there some secret here? (I'm running 5.0.18.)
