Well the version of Xerces shipped with Orion is very old. There is even a
message about this on the JDOM faq list:
http://jdom.org/docs/faq.html
You can safely swap out new xerces and xalan in your Orion directory and
everything should be cool (it works for me). Rumor has it the next version of
Orion will have an updated version of Xerces and Xalan.
I can't wait til Orion implements the part of the 2.3 spec that says that web
apps shouldn't see the server implementation classes. This would solve the
problem because you could ship any version of xerces and xalan with your app in
/WEB-INF/lib and it wouldn't conflict with what the server was doing.

Please respond to "A mailing
list for discussion about Sun
Microsystem's Java Servlet API
Technology."
I have now found out the error that occurs when I try to run the
transformer, it is this:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError
What does this mean does it mean???? I am confused beacuse if the method
works when not invoked by the servlet then it must be able to find the
methods I have used what could this possibly mean ??
PLEASE HELP...
