In fact, it's illegal to provide them. Smith should have noticed a
warning in catalina.out (or elsewhere) that servlet-api.jar provides
certain classes from javax.servlet that are illegal to define within the
webapp, and that they'll be ignored.

I agree. What was wrong with jasper.jar? Are you [Smith] trying to
compile your own JSP resources with your own code or something?

You can see from the jsp-examples webapp provided with Tomcat 5.5.28
that jstl.jar is in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory. You could use
that one if you wanted to.

Maybe it would be best if Smith were to post a list of all the JAR files
in WEB-INF/lib so we could see them. It might be enlightening.
