Hi Michael and Robert,

Thanks for reponding to this question.

You are right about it my Java application is having diffulty reading stateStyleSheet.xsl. I have overcame it by moving it to a new project and suspects that the order of jar files in CLASSPATH were in the wrong order. Nevertheless, I now encountered another issue this time:

java.io.UTFDataFormatException: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence.
        at org.apache.xerces.impl.io.UTF8Reader.invalidByte(Unknown Source)
        at org.apache.xerces.impl.io.UTF8Reader.read(Unknown Source)

        at org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder.build(SAXBuilder.java:489)
        at org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder.build(SAXBuilder.java:928)

at JDOMTrAXPojoInvestmentBean.main(JDOMTrAXPojoInvestmentBean.java:45)

The header of state.xml is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<!DOCTYPE html (View Source for full doctype...)>

- <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Any ideas on what is the cause of this issue and how to overcome it? Likewise, how to define the correct proper namespace prefix? Is it possible that this document has two namespaces. A default one and one with prefix 'html'? If so, which one should I use?

Many thanks again,

Jack

I would suspect that

new StreamSource("stateStyleSheet.xsl")

isn't finding the stylesheet.

Try supplying an absolute URI, or using the constructor

new StreamSource(new File("stateStyleSheet.xsl"))

Subject: JDOM XSLT TransformerConfigurationException

Hi All,

I am getting the following exception when trying to do simple transformation (newbie in JDOM XSLT) using either XSLTransformer/TrAX in JDOM:

javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException: java.io.EOFException: no more input

at com.icl.saxon.PreparedStyleSheet.prepare(PreparedStyleSheet.java:121)

... 4 more

Below is the stateStyleSheet:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

xmlns:xsl="http://www..w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">

<html>

<body>

<h2>Transformed State Detail</h2>

<table border="1">

<tr bgcolor="lightblue">

<th align="left">Area Link</th>

<th align="left">Area Name</th>

</tr>

<xsl:for-each select="/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table[@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a">

<tr>

<td><xsl:value-of select="@href"/></td>

<td><xsl:value-of select="@title"/></td>

</tr>

</xsl:for-each>

</table>

</body>

</html>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

The Java program that calls this stateStyleSheet is as follows:

    SAXBuilder statesaxBuilder = new SAXBuilder("org.ccil.cowan.tagsoup.Parser", false);

    org.jdom.Document stateDocument = statesaxBuilder.build("state.xml");

    TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();

    Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer(new StreamSource("stateStyleSheet.xsl"));

    JDOMSource source = new JDOMSource(stateDocument);

    JDOMResult result = new JDOMResult();

    transformer.transform(source, result);

    Document tranformedDocument = result.getDocument();

    ......

Could this exception have been caused by incorrectly formatted stateStyleSheet? The search path "/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table[@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a" has successfully worked in XPath such as the following lines:

    XPath statePath = XPath.newInstance("/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table [@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a");

    statePath.addNamespace("ns", http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

Whether including namespace ("ns") or not doesn't make any difference.

I am running JDK1.6, Netbeans 6.1, JDOM 1.1, Saxon 6.5, TagSoup 1.2 on Windows XP platform.

Your assistance would be much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Jack
