RE:  Linking Variable to the Path
Hi Matthieu,

Thanks for replying!

I said Mozilla because I am using Mozilla Browser for only testing my sample
code and I don't know that it doesn't' support EXSLT!

My Vendor: Apache Software Foundation (Xalan XSLTC)

I am using Xalan!

Now does this support EXSLT?

I will work on it and will mail back the status soon.

So, how can I Link a Variable to Path?


Regards,
Yaswanth Ravella

Hi, 

When you told you were doing your transformation with Mozilla's
XSLT-processor, I thought it was on client side, but your java code seams to
be server side, is it ?
I don't know anything about JAXP but is there a relationship here with
Mozilla's XSLT-processor ?

Anyway to know which xslt processor is used during the transformation, try
to output this in your xsl :
<xsl:value-of select = "system-property('xsl:vendor')" />  

Regards,

Matthieu Ricaud

PS : the script proposed at http://www.xmleverywhere.com/tips/xslt.htm is
only for msxml (that means IE5+)
