keep the list copied! :) Now, as to your last Exception, it just looks the like xml jar wasn't on the classpath. I would double-check. I ran your Class1 code with the following test.html:
<P><STRONG>Related course structure</STRONG><BR>The quick brown fox jumps over<BR>The quick pink fish jumps over the dolphin's nose</P> and got an error about the BR tag; since the HtmlParser is using an XML parser behind the scenes, your HTML apparently needs to be X(well-formed)HTML. When I changed to: <P><STRONG>Related course structure</STRONG><BR/>The quick brown fox jumps over<BR/>The quick pink fish jumps over the dolphin's nose</P> I still got a bad PDF. I added <html> and <body> tags around the content and got a good PDF. So apparently the SAXmyHtmlHandler doesn't like HTML document fragments. -Matt --- "Dunstall, Christopher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ok, I've got right back to basics and started a > brand new project with > nothing in my classpath, the latest version of itext > and itext-xml > > I have all libraries set, and I run the example > program from the > tutorial... > > D:\jdev9031\jdk\bin\javaw.exe -ojvm -classpath D:\My > Projects\casims\iText\classes;D:\casims\lib;D:\jdev9031\jdev\lib\jdev-rt > .jar;D:\casims\lib\itext-1.01.jar;D:\casims\lib\sax.jar;D:\casims\lib\it > ext-xml-1.01.jar mypackage4.Class1 > Chapter 7 example 7: parsing the HTML from example 2 > > java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: > com.lowagie.text.html.HtmlParser > void mypackage4.Class1.main(java.lang.String[]) > Class1.java:49 Exception in thread main > Process exited with exit code 1. > > Mate, this has got me stumped...
