Hi,
It’s great that you got your code to work, but in general if you manage to fix a problem by making code changes, it helps if you tell everyone what changes you made. That way, if someone else finds the same problem, they can apply the same solution. Thanks in advance. 
Your second question asks about displaying xml without using xsl. If you mean from a java program, you can do this by accessing the XML DOM for your document. In your case, you are using JDOM so, for example, you can write:
Element collab = (Element) xmlobject.getElement();
String value = collab.getChild("title").getText();
This code will get the child Element “title” of the root Element “collab”, and will put its value into a String (which you can write out or whatever you like). Hope this helps, but if I have misunderstood the question please post a new question on this topic - it’s not really connected to your original TConnectionException any more.
Thanks again.
