Usually this means that there is something other than the BOM before your <?xml processing instruction. Are you sure you don't have anything before the beginning of your XML, or is this easily repeatable by simply using a bogus class name?
This is repeatable by using a bogus class name, so that suggests that Struts/Spring is the root cause. Regards Roger --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
