RE: How to use xsl:result-document to create HTML and

Well, what can I say - Saxon seems to move too fast for me :)

Thanks for your comment on the base output uri.
Forced me to remember that I created my own OutputResolver for .html at some
point.
Guess I will have to do something similar for files ending in .svg or .xml,
right?

(doing the transformation from a servlet btw, so not using the command line
options)

Will then dutifully upgrade in hope that all my future problems will be
solved...

Saxon 7.1 is a very old release, you need to move forward.

When you use a relative URI in the href attribute of xsl:result-document, it
is resolved relative to the "base output URI". In Saxon you set this from
the command line using the -o option. So the -o option must be specified,
even if all the output goes to secondary output files.
