Obviously its not there otherwise he wouldnt be getting the error in other words copying some jar (you dont know anything about) to server/lib is the preferred action? I know that the container supports only a certain Servlet / JSP spec and I also know these libraries are supposed to be there I was giving the op the safest way to test TagLib functionality from a (unknown) jar and NOT crash tomcat in the process
It would be easy to back out in case it did'nt work but to back out something placed in server/lib ?
