Yes, the jar was in WEB-INF/lib, and I took it out in case that was a problem. There was no change in the result when I did.
I also suspect a ClassLoader issue. What I would like to know is why? When I subclass a member of a framework, do I have to put my project-unique subclass in the same jar as the common classes? If so, that really sucks. -- Jim McMaster mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] In message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "Mike Curwen" said: > Have you tried placing your library in WEB-INF/lib? > There is probably a classloader issue at work. > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: James C.
