Many servlet containers (and all J2EE platforms) expose an XML parser to web applications by default, so that they don't have to include one in /WEB-INF/lib. Tomcat 4.0 was different in that respect, which caused lots of install questions. That being said, there is an outstanding conflict with the new mechanism when the webapp really does include Xerces. An upcoming 4.0.1 release (release plan/vote will be presented soon) will deal with this -- either by fixing the underlying problem (if possible) or telling people how to deal with it in the Release Notes. > Regards, > > Glenn > Craig > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Glenn Nielsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] | /* Spelin donut madder | > MOREnet System Programming | * if iz ina coment. | > Missouri Research and Education Network | */ | > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >
