The .tld file itself should tell you the URL you need in the directive to access the file. The .tld file doesn't need to be in web-inf/lib. These can be accessed from the jar, at least that was true with JSTL 1.1. I would check the .tld, perhaps the uri element value changed.
Example: .tld snippet: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <taglib xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-jsptaglibrary_2_0.xsd"; version="2.0"> <description>JSTL 1.1 core library</description> <display-name>JSTL core</display-name> <tlib-version>1.1</tlib-version> <short-name>c</short-name> <uri>http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core</uri> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"; prefix="c" %> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of ben short Sent: Tuesday, January 09, 2007 12:45 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat and JSTL 1.2 Tim, Thats what I thought, but I check and double checked and the jstl-1.2.jar file is in the correct location. It also has the c.tld inside it.
