Ha - I have. :-) I dealt with lots of different configurations of JARs in trying to determine the most timely, compatible, and convenient set of libraries to use for the "out of the box" standard-examples.war. (It's been a moving target for a while, so I can empathize with it not being easy to track.) The short answer, since I'm at JavaOne now and don't have time to suggest specific URLs and versions, is to use the set of JARs distributed in standard-examples.war (under WEB-INF/lib). This is the prepackaged version of our JSTL "example" pages, and it's distributed with the RI from jakarta.apache.org/taglibs. Hope that helps for the short term. If you remind me when I have more time, I can describe the histories and principles associated with the distributions of the various XML parsing and transformation libraries. But it's probably just as well that I don't (since it's not particularly interesting). :-) -- Shawn Bayern Author, "JSP Standard Tag Library" http://www.jstlbook.com (coming this summer from Manning Publications) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
