Re: generating an HTML web hierarchy from XML using XS

web hierarchy
The ouput with multiple files is only possible with extension-function. For
example with Xalan:
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/extensionslib.html#redirect. See the
multiple-file example at the JavaDoc
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/apidocs/org/apache/xalan/lib/Redirect.html
too.

Regards,

Joerg
