Hi Rishi,
Your suggestion below seems to be working. Don't know why this is the
case. The xercesImpl.jar file is in common/lib and I also tried putting
it in the WEB-INF/lib directory. Even un-jared the file and put the
class in WEB-INF/classes directory.. not of this worked. Always got a
ClassNotFound exception for "org.apache.xerces.parses.SAXParser"... and
yes.. xercesImpl.jar is in the classpath for tomcat.
At any rate.. your suggestions seems to be an effective workaround.
Thanks a bunch - edwardJones
