there is no either or with Cocoon and Xalan. The first one is an XML publishing framework (http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/index.html), the second one an XSLT processor. Cocoon uses normally Xalan, but you can use any other Java XSLT processor too (I think). or more interestingly (and still very simple): <map:match pattern="**.html"> <map:generate src="{1}.xml"/> <map:transform src="somestylesheet.xsl"/> <map:serialize type="html"/> </map:match> This will match every request that ends with a .html, and will use the matched part of the URI (**) to substitute the {1} portions further down below, i.e. URI request XML source document ----------------------------------------------------------------------- http://host:port/mountpoint/index.html -> index.xml http://host:port/mountpoint/foo/bar.html -> foo/bar.xml Other cool features are aggregation (merging several XML pipelines into one - think 'portal' or 'frames-on-steroids'), and a host of components doing RDBMS-querying, PDF-serialization, SVG and whatnot. Yes, it's much more elaborate than Xalan packaged as a Servlet, but it offers you much more bang for (no) buck. HTH, </Steven>
