Ha - I'm also using Websphere application developer and it does not recognise the version attribute.
Maybe that's my problem - it is v5.1.0 Do you use and IDE - and would you recomend one?

Make sure you web.xml has the following for the <web-app> tag: <web-app version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"> Also, don't put any tag library defines in the web.xml... Other than that, it's always worked for me...
