Description
The exception variable is assigned to the subclass of Throwable that caused the error page to be invoked. The Throwable class is the superclass of all errors and exceptions in the Java language. Only objects that are instances of this class (or of one of its subclasses) are thrown by the Java Virtual Machine or can be thrown by the Java throw statement. See the Java documentation at http://java.sun.com/docs/index.html for a description of the Throwable class.
