Re: Multiple Output Documents with XSLServlet
Thanks Edd,

I knew it was a dumb question, but wanted to make sure there wasn't a better approach to generating frames with a servlet. I've implemented the method you suggested (passing a parameter to control what templates are used) and it works very well. However I worry that the inherent inefficiency of this approach is going to be a problem when I go live with my "document navigator". I suppose if I cache the stylesheet that will help a little, but XT is still going to have to be fired up three times for each view of the document...

The documents in a frameset are fetched in distinct HTTP operations,
which means your servlet will get invoked once for each document that
makes up the frameset. An HTTP GET only retrieves one at a time.

If you're just looking for a neat solution you might use a top-level
variable to control which stylesheet is used, which you can pass in via
the query string in the URL, but you can't deliver three documents to
one HTTP GET.
