my normal jsp page works fine. but i think the problem is with sax and dom api's support.

as you know i am using tomcat. do we have to configure my xerces parser to work with tomcat. in other words..i need to know the configuration procedure for xerces parser(class path settings etc.). I am using windows 2000.

Thanks in advance

You need to add any external/3rd party APIs (usually in .jar files) such as xerces.jar or whatver.jar that "com.macromedia.breeze.mymeetings" package is packaged in, to TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib so that the tomcat ClassLoader can load the required classes.
