I keep getting these parsing exceptions when I try to load my custom taglibs (from JAR files) on Tomcat 4.0.3, 4.0.5, 4.1 on Windows 2000/XP.

I still get the exceptions. example tld header: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE taglib PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JSP Tag Library 1.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-jsptaglibrary_1_2.dtd"> <taglib> ... -Mark Diggory -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
