I actually copied this file and tried it, and I'm still getting
an error similar to Isiah's:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to open taglibrary /tags/clip.tld
: Parse Error in the tag library descriptor: Element type "taglib" is not
declared.
Can anyone explain why this is happening? I assume that
normally that revised web.xml file should work, but it's not...
I've been struggling with this problem for several days now.

Mason,
I think the correction is not only at the web.xml. So, I recommend you to
renew the whole webapps. It worked for me.

I had added the appropriate entries for the library, but it turns out
that this was partially a stupid error of my own, which was that
the URI in the HTML had ".tld" on the end for some reason (bad cut
and paste, I think), which I didn't notice.
However, I must say that although this was my mistake, the error
message from Tomcat was extraordinarily unhelpful and misleading.
But it works now, so...
Thanks for your help!

As Isaiah suggested, I think you need the other new files, in particular
the new TLD. Also, I'm not sure where this reference to "clip.tld" is
coming from -- its not part of the source code with from the book. Have you
added a second tag library? If that's the case, then you need to add the
appropriate entries for this second library to your web.xml file...
