Then make the error page a jsp which clears the stream and prints what you want.

If your servlet already prints what you need, then force the buffer to be flushed so that the response is committed and an error page is not shown.

No, this is the reverse of what I want.  I want to STOP it sending an
HTML page, rather than the error-page tag to set it.

I have a server which is being used only for XML servlets.  I would like
to send back error responses either as an XML error or, in the case of
a non-200 status code just to send back the status code and a single
line text message.

I set the status (which seems to work) and the text, which again
seems to be sent back on the response header, but I also get a
bunch of HTML text which gets in the way of processing the
error text which I want to do using XmlHttpRequest.

I have not included any ErrorPage tags in my web.xml nor are there
any in the global web.xml.
