Cross site scripting

The web application I worked on lately just got deployed onto tomcat 4.1.27. We found out the problem of the cross site scripting on the tomcat later. Is there anyone can help to find out how to fix the security problem?
Thanks
Elinor

Seems no one is interested in this topic. Just FYI
I looked into this myself to find tomcat v4.1.28 has already fixed the problem. v4.1.28 and Tomcat 5 use a new version of Coyote connector, which implements HTTP 1.1. The new HTTP changes the HTTP header info when sending response back to web browswer. You can find details from any HTTP 1.1 document.
