Hi,
Thanks Joe, Antonio and everyone else out there for a prompt response. 
I had read that, struts-config.xml won't work if we change the order of
sections in it. So, I was just triaging with struts-config.xml in my free
time and found my application working with modified struts-config.xml, which
should not happen. Though struts-config.xml is a well formed document.

Thanks/Regards,
Gaurav Jain

This is because your XML is no longer valid according to the DTD.

This is not a fatal error in Struts, but why would you choose to 
change the order of elements in the struts-config.xml?

This is not fatal because the Digester rules which consume the 
struts-config.xml are not as rigorous as the DTD.  They tolerate the 
elements in any order.

You will get the SAXParseException as long as your document does not 
conform to the DTD.
