Thanks Craig,

I've created the simplest app I can

I now have this

webapps\test\web-inf\test.tld

test.tld looks like this
(the DOCTYPE)
<taglib>
  <tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>
  <jsp-version>1.2</jsp-version>
  <short-name>Test Tags</short-name>
  
  <listener>
    <listener-class>SomeListener</listener-class>
  </listener>

</taglib>



My listener has a System.out.println in contextInitialised. If I install the 
listener in the web.xml file I see the println. But if I remove the entry from 
web.xml and do the above it fails.

Am I missing a step, the spec implies to me (but you know how good I am at 
reading specs :-) ) that simply dropping the tld into the web-inf directory 
would work. 

My web.xml is empty i.e. 

<web-app>
</web-app>

As I said, if I put the <listener> entry here the listener loads (so I know the 
listener is OK).

Am I missing a simple step somewhere?
