Hello Fatima Your problem is more of a java issue, then a xercers issue. When and if you got time for it, I'll recommend you to get a deeper understanding on how java runtime picks up needed information (it's well worth it) i.e classpath issues. From what I remember, all you need from Xerces, to run the sample (if 2.4.0 xerces) that is XercesImpl.jar on your classpath. Both the TextImpl and the DOMParser are in that jar file. Since they are messaged missing, the XercesImpl.jar is not on your classpath properly, or it's buildt (compiled) wrong.
Why bother building...why don't you just download the precompiled jar files from Apache, and put the XercesImpl.jar on the classpath. Further, why bother running the samples...they are more for opening, and understanding the implementation of the xerces stuff....how it's used.
