Dims,

thanks for your reply. I'm quite surprised of this approach
and would really appreciate to get a grasp on the reason
for doing this (since I'm sure there must be a good one :)).

I'm still a bit confused and hope there is a way to get 
around this issue: actually my problem is to resolve relative
URL in document streams (which is not an issue for HTML where
URLs are resolved by a browser but it's a serious limitations 
for serializers based on XSL:FO, since they need to embed 
the resource right into the stream). AFAIK this is not possible
even with the current FOPSerializer, which doesn't work - at
least on my setup - with relative URLs and this can be quite 
an issue for applications that need to generate formats other
than HTML. Should I assume that the official Cocoon answer is
"keep your links absolute"? 

Thanks again,
