help XLT+FO+TOMCAT
Hi,
I have a small problem, I use fop for transforming XML to PDF from
within a JSP bean that runs in Tomcat. No, the problem is with the XSLT
file that is composed from two subfiles, like this:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<!-- ================================= -->
<!-- PARAMETERS -->
<!-- ================================= -->
<xsl:param name="baseDir" select="'./'"/>
..................................
<xsl:template ...... >
<!-- ======================================= -->
<!-- Auction
description -->
<!-- ======================================= -->
<xsl:apply-templates select="{$baseDir}/auction-description"/>
<!-- ======================================= -->
<!-- Auction
status -->
<!-- ======================================= -->
<xsl:apply-templates select="{$baseDir}/auction-status"/>
</xsl:template>
When I want to apply the XSLT it says that it cannot find the file
{$baseDir}/auction-status. Why the substitution of {$baseDir} is not
made?
I want {$baseDir} to be the directory where all my XSLT files are
placed. Is there any way to solve this problem? I cant put a relative
path because it wont be relative to the main XSLT file.
Thanks, Dan.

My mistake, so much for copy-paste. The file was:
<xsl:template ...>
<xsl:param name="baseDir" select="'./'"/>
......
<xsl:include href="{$baseDir}/descriptionToPDF.xslt"/>
<xsl:include href="{$baseDir}/statusToPDF.xslt"/>
......
</xsl:template>
Sorry for this. The problem is that I can't include those two files.

Hi Dan,
it looks as if you are mixing up file access and node processing.
Your template
<xsl:apply-templates select="{$baseDir}/auction-description"/>
won't select a file in any of your directories because the syntax
you are using is intended to traverse a tree of nodes.
When you want to read a file you should do something like:
<xsl:apply-templates
select="document(concat($baseDir,auction-description))"/>
this will read the auction-description file from $baseDir.
Hope this helps
