Problems with the FopServlet w XML/XSL

Hello World,

I've installed FopServlet in a TomCat Server. 
When I run the servlet with fo parameter (example, FopServlet?fo=my.fo),
I get the pdf.
BUT
when I run it with xsl and xml parms (FopServlet?xsl=my.xsl&xml=my.xml),

I get a blank screen.

I have downloaded the example code from the CVS, I think there is some
problem in the renderXML-method.

Any advise?

Best regards

SV: Problems with the FopServlet w XML/XSL

Posted by Anders Gunnare <an...@frontec.se>.
Hello,

It works when I add 
dummy=.pdf
in the end of the URL.

A small but important thing, by some reason in the example-code
(=FopServlet.java) made by Keiron it is two example call to the servelt,
one to a .fo file and one to a .xml/.xsl file, it doesn't say anything
about dummy=.pdf

I don't know if this is the problem.

I run MSIE5.5.

Hi,

I have checked the servlet example and it works fine for me.
Once I got the right classpath and the right value for the files it 
correctly worked for the fo option and for the xml+xsl option.
/fop/servlet/FopServlet?fo=extensive.fo&dummy=.pdf
and
/fop/servlet/FopServlet?xml=glossary.xml&xsl=glossary.xsl&dummy=.pdf

I did notice that after a few failings it sent error meesages to the 
browser, if the correct pdf was then sent the pdf was loaded as text, the 
next time I loaded the pdf it was a blank browser window. Then after 
addiing a dummy .pdf to the end it worked. So if you have troubles blame 
the browser (I'm sure you can all guess which one I was using).

So the example servlet does work properly when setup correctly. It is 
mainly meant for demo purposes you may want to change it for your own use.
