Hello all,

Please help me! Im so tired of having taglibs in one way or another
trying to stop me doing some serious programming!

I'm getting this error:
javax.servlet.ServletException: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException:
Content is not allowed in prolog.

I have: "WEB-INF\lib\standard-1.1.2-patched.jar" in my buildpath.

The part of the code its having trouble with is in my very first page
with this:
<%@ include file="/WEB-INF/jsp/common/taglibs.jsp" %>

which links to taglibs.jsp:

I think that the following line(s) may be causing your problem:

<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"%>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>

You may be trying to reset the page headers after some output is
already written, it does not usually work...

<%@ taglib prefix="fn" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions";
%>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="c-rt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core_rt"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="fmt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/fmt"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="x" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/xml"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="html" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-
html" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="html-el" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-
html-el" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="bean" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-
bean" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="bean-el" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-
bean-el" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="str" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/
string-1.1" %>

Now i know this exact same source code works for other people who are
using it as a base, so i must assume this is some sort of
configuration problem.

Could someone pretty please tell me what this error message can be
caused by because i can't find any way to fix it.

Thanks in advance to any guru's out there that can help me
