 XSLT 2.0 has lot of other features apart from regular expressions. For e.g. for-each-group (a newcomer now doesn't need to learn a complicated Muenchian grouping algorithm. it's also very scalable), rich data typing (tightly integrated with XML Schema, which has many benifits), a very huge function library, and quite a few more benifits. My point is that none of those really matter to me all that much. Using Saxon just requires setting saxon8.jar in the classpath. Xalan-J requires setting xalan.jar. So complexity of using Saxon is same as Xalan. Yes, and both are quite a bit more complex than using xsltproc. :-( Classpath is evil. -- o;?Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Java I/O 2nd Edition Just Published! http://www.cafeaulait.org/books/javaio2/ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0596527500/ref=nosim/cafeaulaitA/
