Hi Thank you for all support. Unfortunately, you lost me two mails back when you started talking about DOM and SAX. It seems that I have some serious reading to do before I'll be of any help :(
I have picked up a few things though: The Betwixt TODO-list has a low priority point saying: <<Create a W3C DOM implementation that acts as a facade on top of beans to allow beans to be transformed in XSLT engines as XML.>> - I guess this is what would be needed to easily plug Betwixt into Maverick? Would it be easier to use JXV? See 'Using JXV in your code' in: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/jxv/jxv/doc/user_guide.html I don't know how smart these packages are since each bean that has to be treated with care (cyclic reference), needs a special configuration entry for the Betwixt or JXV. Did I miss something or does it have to be this awkward? Why is Xalan interesting for the Bean to XML conversion? I thought it was only used for XSLT and the Bean to XML transformation takes place before that. /johan jim moore wrote: > Ah, gotcha.
