SAXException on process()

[Dudu Noy <du...@zapper.com>]

Hi all, 
I have a beginner's question on XALAN:
I am trying to perform my first XSLT transform inside a java servlet.
I use the code:

import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTProcessorFactory;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTInputSource;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTResultTarget;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTProcessor;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;

XSLTProcessor processor = XSLTProcessorFactory.getProcessor();
XSLTInputSource inXml = new XSLTInputSource ("foo.xml");
XSLTInputSource inXsl = new XSLTInputSource ("foo.xsl");
XSLTResultTarget out = new XSLTResultTarget ("result.html");
processor.process(inXml, inXsl, out);

I get a SAXException on the process function.
I did manage to run the XALAN on the same foo.xml, foo.xsl from the command
line.
I added both xalan.jar and xerces.jar to the project's class path.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks a lot, 
Dudu

Hi DUDU,
    Does it say XSL ERROR? Its probably because it cant find the file.
give the full path to the file. For example if you have foo.xml and
foo.xsl in the c:\mysite\test\

then you would have the following code.

filepath= file///c:/mysite/test/
XSLTProcessor processor = XSLTProcessorFactory.getProcessor();
XSLTInputSource inXml = new XSLTInputSource (filepath+"foo.xml");
XSLTInputSource inXsl = new XSLTInputSource (filepath+"foo.xsl");
XSLTResultTarget out = new XSLTResultTarget ("result.html");
processor.process(inXml, inXsl, out);

Try that see if it works.
