Using the file:// works with the XSL file. It works only with java
fork="true" but not fork="false". This at least gets me in the ballgame.

I can't get this to work because a can't figure out how to get the
xalan/xerces/bsf jars to this command via classpath in the ant file. And
no matter what I do with the style input, the path get changed. Ant
