We are using the regexp tag library in our jsp's. Yes, it worked fine with Tomcat 4. The rest of the application is working fine. Users just started noticing that where they are putting apostrophes and saving, when they bring the information back up it shows as $1. "Mary's purse" is being brought into the application as "Mary$1s purse". It is like it isn't interpreting the meaning of the $1 anymore.

What are you suggesting? ;) The jakarta-regexp that tomcat uses to handle regular expressions has not changed since September 2003, so many of the tomcat 4.1.x releases have used it. Did you use these tomcat 4 releases without a problem? Alternatively, if you're referring to regexps directly used in your application, and you're using JDK regexps (the java.util.regex package), obviously tomcat has nothing to do with that. Is the rest of your webapp functioning properly in tomcat5, or are there other errors that perhaps make this regexp one come up?
