Thanks Lukasz. This is very useful information. I think this clearly fixes my problem, but I still have some questions. 1) when was xwork moved to ASF? 2) It's not really Struts 2 doing the look up right? It's the sax parser? Is Struts2 using the EntityResolver to add the resolution logic that converts the DOCTYPE tag to a classpath resource lookup? If you don't know of the top of your head, I plan to dive into the code myself anyhow.
