This is not necessary if you're using a Servlet 2.3 or later container -- Tomcat 4 or 5, for example. Most TLDs (including Struts) have a URI (which, even though it may *look* like a URL, is not.) For example: <taglib> <tlib-version>1.3</tlib-version> <jsp-version>1.2</jsp-version> <short-name>bean</short-name> <uri>http://struts.apache.org/tags-bean</uri> ... Try that uri in a browser -- it doesn't exist. Where it does exist is in the struts-bean.tld file, inside struts.jar (or struts-taglib.jar in 1.3). Modern containers will discover tag library descriptors stored in jar files, and you need only use the same uri in your taglib directive: <%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-bean"; prefix="bean" %> No need to keep "loose" copies of the tlds in WEB-INF, which means one less thing to deal with for deployment and upgrades. Or, as Craig says...
