That is, I switched to the 2.4 version of web.xml and now none of the taglib elements I have in there work.
I get the following excpetion
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: File "/tags/struts-html" not found
org.apache.jasper.compiler.DefaultErrorHandler.jspError(DefaultErrorHandler.jav a:105)
I've been surfing a good portion of the day looking for some documentation on this but to no avail. I did find that I should wrap the taglib elements in a jsp-info. I'm runing tomcat 5.0.19.
In any event here is my web.xml:

In addition Eclipse is complaining about web-app element not able to be found.
Thanks for anyone's help!
