Hi Michael, Works for me. Are you sure you were actually picking up Xerces when you tried this and not the JAXP impl in the JDK? I recall that the equivalent in Java 5 had some bugs in this area. Have you tried using the Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism [1] with xml-apis.jar, xercesImpl.jar?
Thanks.
