I vote for using servlet-api-2.5.jar using now. Then when its in the archive we can play with changing the servlet-api.jar link to servlet-api-2.5.jar. When that gives us no problems we can still change the link to 2.5. Cheers, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
