Hi, Thanks very much for your reply!
Do you know how can I remove Xerces/Xalan libraries from the Tomcat 5 installation and replace by the latest available versions? Also, do you know if JDK5 ships with older versions of those libraries also? Many thanks, Nuno 2008/8/30 Mukul Gandhi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I haven't worked with Tomcat for quite a while.
