There is currently no way to do that using JSP 1.x because it will not allow method calling (including passing parameters) using EL. However, this will change in JSP 2 as this will be supported. So for now I guess your stuck with using a scriptlet or creating a simple tag to do this. -Tim

What you're currently getting is the exception.toString(). For the full stacktrace you'd need to do: <% ((Exception)request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.error.exception")).printStac kTrace(response.getWriter()); %> How to express that in JSTL, I don't know. I'd specifically not know whether the cast was necessary and how to pass the printStackTrace method the PrintWriter.
