.tagx Tag files in Weblogic 9.2

Question

Hi,
          We are trying to run one of our applications deploying it to a Weblogic Server 9.2. We are running into problems, as we use .tagx tag files and they do not seem to be recognized. Our .jsp page tries to invoke them as:
                    <%@ taglib tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags/taglibname/" prefix="taglibname" %>
          <taglibname:tag ...>...</taglibname:tag>
                              We have XML tag files named /WEB-INF/tags/taglibname/tag.tagx files, but still we get:
                    javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: ServletException in '/WEB-INF/jsp/chains/index.jsp': Failed to compile JSP /WEB-INF/jsp/chains/index.jsp
          index.jsp:1:5: No tag library could be found with this URI. Possible causes could be that the URI is incorrect, or that there were errors during parsing of the .tld file.
          <%@ taglib tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags/layout/" prefix="layout" %>
              ^----^
                              If we define a simple .tld file for the tag, the problem shifts, as the tagfile element for tlds does not allow defining attributes, and we zillions of "This attribute is not recognized." messages when trying to use the tags.
          Any ideas? Should we use .tag files instead of .tagx or...?

Hi,
          Does this happens if you invoke the tag from a .jspx page?
          I was under the heavy impression that .tagx were to be used by .jspx files, but maybe I am wrong.
