# HttpStatus JSP Tag Library
A simple JSP Tag Library to display the reason of [HTTP status codes](http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html) in JSP error pages.
----
For example:
```jsp
<%@ page isErrorPage="true" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="hs" uri="http://erik.thauvin.net/taglibs/httpstatus" %>
<html><head>
<title>${pageContext.errorData.statusCode} <hs:reason default="Server Error"/></title>
</head>
<h1><hs:reason default="Server Error"/></h1>
...
```
or
```jsp
<%@ page isErrorPage="true" import="net.thauvin.erik.httpstatus.Reasons" %>
<%= Reasons.getReasonPhrase(501) %>
```
would display on a [501 status code](http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.5.2):
Not Implemented
----
The **<hs:reason>** tag attributes are:
Attribute | Description | Required
------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------
`statusCode` | The HTTP status error code. If not specified the current status code is used. | No
`default` | The fallback value to output. | No
