XML parsing seems to be running fine, without me having to mess about adding new .jar files or anything.
Have now also installed Apache Axis on the laptop, just need to now test to see if it’s running…. First attempt at installation validation failed, needed to download and install JavaBeans Activation Framework 1.0.2 (‘activation.jar’). The installation now validates, but there are 2 optional components missing mail.jar and xmlsec.jar so I’ll now download & install these.
JavaMail API 1.3.1 and XML Security 1.1.0 are downloaded and installed. The Axis happiness page is now very happy 
Next to test consuming and providing some simple web services…. but that’s for tomorrow.
