why is it that many methods from java classes are not working in JSP with javawebserver?
Also many times i find that even if a small error like syntax error is made when i run it from the browser, the server without displaying the error it simply return HTTP 500 internal server error. how to make it pinpoint the exact error where it occured?

maybe you just forgot to import the class you try to use; for Float.parseFloat include

<@ page import="java.lang.Float" %>

whether you get a meaningful error-message depends on the JSP-container you're using; Tomcat gives you a hint to the source of the error in most cases.
