My understanding is that JAXP is part of the J2SE 5.0 language spec (ie, 
xml apis have been incorporated into the core library).
The errors I'm getting is that the org.w3c.dom.Node.getTextContent() 
method does not exist on the xml-apis jar, but it does on the J2SE one, 
so the standard library seems to contain a newer version of the apis 
than the extra jar.
I think JAXP being part of the J2SE 5.0 spec should mean the IBM JDK 
also contains that, does anyone knows it for sure?

Cheers,

Gabriel
