Re: Problem with Collections -- Getting a Failed to lo

Hi,

I have this instruction in my xsl:

<xsl:param name="path" as="xs:string" required="yes"/>
<xsl:variable name="docs" as="node()*" select="collection(concat($path, '?select=*.xml'))"/>

and trying to run it in the command line using:

java net.sf.saxon.Transform -it main xslt\Merge_Sort.xsl mode=body path=d:/rnd/Berichtigungsliste/sample/input/body > xslt\BL5-7_body_test.xml

but i get an error of:

Error on line 1 column 1 of file:///d:/rnd/Berichtigungsliste/sample/input/body:
SXXP0003: Error reported by XML parser: Content is not allowed in prolog.
Error FODC0005: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Content is not allowed in prolog.
Error on line 6 of file:/D:/RND/Berichtigungsliste/xslt/Merge_Sort.xsl:
FODC0004: Failed to load collection catalogue d:/rnd/Berichtigungsliste/sample/input/body
Transformation failed: Run-time errors were reported

But when i use a relative path as the value for $path like:

java net.sf.saxon.Transform -it main xslt\Merge_Sort.xsl mode=body path=../sample/input/body > xslt\BL5-7_body_test.xml

it works... what am i doing wrong here?

Thanks,
Jeff
