I'm not entirely sure my JDK is the exact same, so I guess that could be the problem. Anyway, those two extra JAR files in my Tomcat common lib have been copied to the production server's Tomcat's common lib, and now the site works without any such exception. So is that the most likely cause--that I'm using a different JDK than the other developer? I've got 1.4.2--is there some reason I would need xercesImpl.jar and xmlParserAPIs.jar? Thanks for your advice...

Are you using JDK 1.4? Are you using the same JDK as the developer who wrote the site?
