Hi,

can anyone describe in a short form what´s the difference between the XALAN 
and the XSLT Transformer?

Thanks
Helmut

XALAN is an XSLT Transformation engine. By default, it is the engine used by the cocoon XSLT Transformer, which is just a cocoon component, and not tied to any specific engine implementation.

Er, there isn't such a thing as a XALAN transformer, nor strictly speaking a XSLT 
one. There is a TRAX transformer. You configure it to use whatever TRAX complient 
transformer classes you have. By default, Cocoon uses Xalan. But people have used 
others including Saxon, and even STX (which is not XSLT at all).

Hope that helps.
