NAME

ASP4::ErrorHandler - Default fatal error handler

SYNOPSIS

In your asp4-config.json:

  ...
    "errors": {
      "error_handler":    "ASP4::ErrorHandler",
      "mail_errors_to":   "you@server.com",
      "mail_errors_from": "root@localhost",
      "smtp_server":      "localhost"

DESCRIPTION

This class provides a default error handler which does the following:

1) Makes a simple HTML page and prints it to the browser, telling the user that an error has just occurred.

2) Sends that same HTML to the email address specified in the config, using the SMTP server also specified in the config. The email subject will look something like:

  ASP4: Error in your-site.com/index.asp
