Here are the offending lines in the jsp document.

<%@ taglib uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/datetime-1.0" prefix="dt" %>
...
<dt:format><c:out value="${event.start.time}"/></dt:format>

Here is the strange error-

Severity Description Resource In Folder Location Creation Time
2 unknown user tag <dt:format … check http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/datetime-1.0 00_home.jsp SFHIV/WebRoot/templates line 50 August 6, 2004 10:44:47 AM

The tablibs-string.jar is also in the classpath and if I try something like dt:chomp there is no error. If I add the taglib tlds manually and use a context relative url, the error disappears……………………………….

First comment is to please upgrade to Eclipse 3.0 GA, the version of MyEclipse you are running was developed against the final release. While it might “pretty much work” against the RC releases, you have a higher chance of running into flakiness.

Second, I actually use the datetime lib in a project I”m working on now and it works fine…

taglib:

<%@ taglib uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/datetime-1.0" prefix="dt" %>

code:

<dt:format pattern="MM-dd-yy"><bean:write  name="user" property="dateCreated" /></dt:format>

web.xml:

<taglib>
    <taglib-uri>http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/datetime-1.0</taglib-uri>
    <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/tld/taglibs-datetime.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>

Can you try and do the update and copy what I did and see if it works?
