You can keep your XML/XSL under WEB-INF so they are secure. For example:

- basic_app
  |- css
  |- images
  |- WEB-INF
       |- classes
           |- SaxonServlet.class
       |- content
           |-replace_data.xml
       |- styling
           |- test.xsl
       |- lib
           |- saxon.jar

You can set an intitial param for the docroot relative path to your content in your /WEB-INF/web.xml. For example: <context-param> <param-name>client.content.dir</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/content/</param-value> </context-param>

Then you will need to either getRealPath or getResourceAsStream based on an argument starting from the WEB-INF. For example:

StringBuffer path = new StringBuffer(ServletContextObject.getRealPath(ServletContextObject.getInitParameter("client.content.dir"))); path.append(filename_var);

I want to use Tomcat to do an xslt transformation via a servlet.

I have Tomcat up and running and Saxon installed.
Where should i put my xlst, xml files under Tomcat? And what is more needed
to
have the following working.
http://webserver:8080/examples/servlets/SaxonServlet?source=replace_data.xml
&style=test.xsl
I am using the SaxonServlet that came with the saxon samples. Do i need to
change any code in it
or is this a generic version that works for every kind of transformation.
Thanks for any feedback;
Joeri
