Maybe you are not specifying the correct URI in the JSP file that uses the taglib.
Based on your web.xml, it should be
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/taglib16.tld" prefix"WhatEverYouDecideToUse" %>
Keep in mind that the URI is an identifier and so the one you use in the JSP file
needs to match the one you use in the web.xml file, otherwise the location you specify
with <taglib-location> means nothing.
>From the JSP 1.2 PFD
"The taglib directive in a JSP page declares that the page uses a tag library, uniquely
identifies the tag library using a URI and associates a tag prefix that will
distinguish usage of
the actions in the library.
A JSP container maps the URI used in the taglib directive into a Tag Library Descriptor
in two steps: it first resolves the URI into a TLD resource path, and then it derives
the TLD
object itself from the TLD resource path."
