[albatross-users] Help catching an exception...

There are several ways to do this. As Neal suggested, you can subclass
the Application class you have chosen, and override the handle_exception
method, or you can add a template page called "traceback.html", which
will be passed the python and albatross template tracebacks (with special
characters suitably escaped) in python_exc and html_exc respectively.

I would also recommend looking at the Albatross code - specifically the
Application class in app.py.
