The scenarios you've described are pretty
sketchy, so it's difficult to tell what might be going wrong.  When
you mention document builders, are you speaking specifically about javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder?
 If so, do the documents involved have namespace declarations with
elements in the document being in those namespaces?  If so, is it
possible that in one scenario the DocumentBuilder was namespace-aware and
in the other it was not?  If that's the case, you can create a namespace-aware
DocumentBuilder by invoking the DocumentBuilderFactory.setNamespaceAware
method with a true value as the argument.

Thanks,

Henry
