Stack trace mangled

           Summary: Stack trace mangled
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.4 Beta 3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: j3322ptm@yahoo.de


The stack trace may contain lines like 
  at java.lang.Error.<init>(Error.java:52)
This is sent verbatim in the error pages to the client. Because the
pages are HTML, browsers interpret the <init> as markup and swallow it.
This may cause irritation. A stack trace should be properly escaped or
at least enclosed in a CDATA.
It's probably not to bad of an idea to provide for escaping error messages
too.
