Hi Gudmundar,
The class loading scheme that separates the class loader
used by web applications from the class loader used by the
server is not a feature in Tomcat 3.2.1 It is a new feature
in Tomcat 3.3 Milestone 1 and an old feature in Tomcat 4.x.
AFAIK, you can not add different XML parsers to Tomcat 3.2.1,
you can only replace the XML parser used by Tomcat 3.2.1 with
a different compatible one, such as Xerces.
Cheers,
Larry
