Re: I may be confused - can I put Saxon into cocoon, or run
Xerces at the command line?
Stephen:
If you want to make sure that it's Xerces and not a difference between
Xerces and the Xalan parser that comes with cocoon (The two parsers use
different extensions and some of those may conflict with cocoon), ran Saxon
with Xerces as the parser using a command like this:
java com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet -x org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser <name
of the file> <name of the stylesheet>
That will report any error with the XML

My apologies. The command I sent was for the command line version of Saxon.
I don't use it on servlets, prefering to run Saxon by hand

Saxon and Xalan implement different extensions differently. You can run both
Saxon and Xalan from the command line, but be aware from the start that they
will not work exactly the same with a given piece of XSLT stylesheets.

Hi Carlos,
Thanks for taking the trouble to reply. I did try what you suggested, but I
regret things didn't go quite according to plan. Here's what happened.
First of all I got a ClassDefNotFound on the saxon StyleSheet, so I
downloaded the full Saxon ( i was using instant, ehem ) and put saxon.jar in
my classpath. Now i am getting a TransformerException on
org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser.
In any case, I'm not sure I want to use Xerces. If cocoon comes with Xalan
then maybe I should use that one. I have since discovered that Saxon uses
the AElfred parser ( whatever that is ). So I have an xsl that works fine
with saxon but throws a big bluey in cocoon. Maybe my qestion ought to be
'How can i run at the command line whatever cocoon is doing internally, so
that I can check for errors'
With that in mind, and just for kicks, I tried changing 'xerces' to 'xalan'
in your instrunctions. No cigar.
If someone happens to know what I need to know, please pass that important
information my way. I'd be very grateful.

Best,
Stephen
