Thanks for you reply. Are you sure that xercesImpl.jar is shipped with Java 1.5 on all platforms? Because we've had some instances of Macs using Java 1.5 not being able to find it. Since the name mismatch between the filename and what's listed in the xalan-2.6.0.jar's MANIFEST.MF causes JAR indexing to fail, and JAR indexing has some impact on the efficiency of class loading, it would be great if someone would fix this. The simplest fix would be to alter that manifest file so that it names only files which ship with Batik. -- J. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
