Hi,

Just started using JDOM and have written a small app that
updates/changes my XML docs yesterday.
However, I now want to move this helper class over to Tomcat and call
methods from a JSP.
I've put JDOM jar in my Tomcat lib folder, edited Tomcat.bat to include
it on the classpath and done the same with Xerces.jar.
I can create an instance of my helper from the JSP no problem, if my
constuctor looks like this:

public EditXml (String filename){
    this.filename=filename;
     try{
      builder= new SAXBuilder();
    }catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
}

However if I try to build a Document object using the filename arg ie

public EditXml (String filename){
    this.filename=filename;
     try{
      builder= new SAXBuilder();
         doc = builder.build(new File(filename));
    }catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
}

I throws a java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.xml.sax.Attributes: method
getQname(I)Ljava/Lang/String;

Anyone using JDom and Tomcat sucessfully?

Adam
