using xsl in jsp portlet

[Jeffrey Owens <jo...@yahoo.com>]

I am accessing a java class on another server and returning xml. I want to use xsl to transform xml into html, but I cant' get jsp to recognize stylesheet, within the jsp or the xreg file. I'm probably going at this backward and need to reengineer my whole approach, but if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate comment.

Re: using xsl in jsp portlet

We have been able to parse an XML feed from an outside source 
(YellowBrix) with the following JSP code:

<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.InputStream" %>
<%@ page import="java.net.URL" %>
<%@ page import="javax.xml.transform.*"%>
<%@ page import="javax.xml.transform.stream.*"%>

<html>
  <body>
<%

    String link = "http://...your external link here...";

    URL url = new URL(link);

    InputStream f = url.openStream();

    String xslFile = "news.xsl";
    TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new 
StreamSource(xslFile));
    transformer.transform( new StreamSource(f), new StreamResult(out));


%>
  </body>
</html>

I didn't want to spend all day trying to make Jetspeed happy with the 
path to the stylesheet, so I set up the JSP, ran it and checked the 
error for the path in the "news.xml not found" message.  In our case, it 
was looking in the WEB-INF/conf directory but I can't tell you exactly 
why it's looking there.  Your instance may look elsewhere depending on 
configuration settings.

Did you try transforming the XML/XSL to html first, and then inserting 
this html into the JSP? Check out XSLPortlet for a start on the transform.
