Set my environment to jdk1.3.1_02 simply to eliminate any possibiilty
of not being sure which version of xerces is being run - with jdk 1.4
and above properly implementing the endorsed override mechanism to
use a specific version of Xerces is required:
merely wanted to remove that possibilty as a factor in the equation

As with Tomcat coming with its own version of xerces.jar
changing the file by overwriting was simply done to ensure the
use of xerces 1.4.4. Very easy to accomplish in Tomcat 4.0.1, once
again merely to ensure the proper parser that was stated as being used

J> jdk1.4.1 while he was running jdk1.3.1.  I was going

J> I'm pretty sure his InputSource isn't empty as the

J> Still, it might be useful to know that the stack trace
