Re: Repart generation with XSL Stylesheet

If I unerstand you properly I have tried something similar; I passed an xml
and a corresponding xsl file into a jsp, and got xalan to transform the xml.
Here is the valid code:

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html" %>
<%@ page import="javax.xml.transform.*,javax.xml.transform.stream.*"%>

Locale locale =
SessionManager.getUserProfile(request).getLocale().getLocale();
String xmlFile = "http://localhost/static/xml/" + locale.getLanguage() + "_"
+ locale.getCountry() + "/contact_details.xml";

String xslFile    = http://localhost/static/xsl/contactDetailsToHTML.xsl";
TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new
StreamSource(xslFile));
transformer.transform(
        new StreamSource(xmlFile), new StreamResult(out));

As you can see the xmlFile is static; I think for your example you would be
better to dynamically generate the xml and pass it to the page as an
InputStream (the StreamSource class can take an InputStream or indeed a
Reader as a constructor as well as a File or URL)
Hope this helps
