I am new to FOP and trying to run the simple FopServlet in WebSphere

copy all the lib jar files like fop.jar; xerces-1.2.3.jar;
xalan-2.0.0.jar; xalanj1compat.jar; avalon-framework-4.0.jar;
logkit-1.0.jar; bsf.jar into the server lib directory. When I try to
access the servlet through the browser, I got an empty page and
exception logged like:

Websphere 3.x has some really ancient XML libraries in the
static classpath for the webapp. You'll have to put your
favorite XML toolset (Xalan/Xerxes) in the static classpath
explicitely. Look here

search for "Websphere"
Complain violently to IBM, event though you'll probably get only
some "yeah, yeah, upgrade to 4.x" comment.
