Hello *, I just tried FOP 0.19 on JDK 1.4. The imbedded Crimson parser caused trouble. So I switched back to JDK 1.3. Everything is fine with crimson-1.1 from 30-Jan-2001, but not any more with the recent nightlies. Everything is fine with xerces-1.2.3 that is bundled with the fop distribution. Trouble again with xerces-1.4. The FOTreeBuilder runs into NullPointerExceptions. That's most probably because the default behavior of the parsers changed. In public void startElement( String uri, String localName, String qName, Attributes attributes ) localName now is empty. By the same token, Attributes.getLocalName() now returns an empty String. Perhaps the feature http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces should be set to true? And how about introducing JAXP?
