Lab Time

• Expand on my calculator example.  Start with that code if you wish, or start with the JSP templates provided in NetBeans.
• Using scriptlets, make a simple calculator that will accept two numbers and add, divide, subtract, or multiply them, or raise one number to the power of another.
• Import any necessary packages using <%@ page import="package name" %>.
• Make a static HTML page with a form.  The form should have text boxes for the first number, second number, and mathematical operation.  When the user clicks the submit button, the form should call this JSP.
• Use error.jsp, or your own error page, to handle exceptions.  You can use a try - catch block for parts if you'd like, but you should try using an error JSP as well.
• If you have time, keep playing around with it.
• You can use the Tomcat edition in NetBeans by right-clicking on the file and then selection either Execute or Execute (force reload).
• Need help?  Please ask.
