heh, I have copied Tidy.jar to many locations. the "primary" location is /home/thufir/java/lib/Tidy.jar,
oh, d'oh... that was in your previous email, I just missed it...
it's also at /home/thufir/java/src/org/w3c/tidy/Tidy.jar and home/thufir/java/src/atreide/org/w3c/tidy/Tidy.jar (the last one doesn't really make sense).
see below...
really, it should just be in "lib," to follow standards, right?
There's no "standard" in this regard. It's somewhat conventional for jars to live in some place(s) called "lib", and those places can can be rooted anywhere that makes sense for your project.
but the import statement specifies "import org.w3c.tidy.Tidy;" so, errr, I should be boning up on import statements 'cause I don't know what that means (aside from org/w3c/tidy/Tidy).
OK, you understand that there is a relationship between the Java class hierarchy and the structure of the Java source tree(s), but there is no such relationship between the class hierarchy and the location of jar files!
So "org.w3c.tidy.Tidy" has absolutely nothing to do with where Tidy.jar lives. It has everything to do with what you see when you do "jar tf Tidy.jar" (try that command and you'll see what I mean).
Anyway, just from glancing over your stuff I'm not sure what your problem is at this point. You might try using "${basedir}/lib/Tidy.jar" in your classpath setting. See if the '-v' and/or '-d' flags to ant shed any light.
