I've had a lot of success using xsp to instantiate my java classes and subsequently call toSAX (formerly toDOM) from the xsp page. In fact this is basically what I use xsp for (with subsequent xslt processing of course). Although the xml is usually produced internally within my classes, some do read it from a file and output it when toSAX (or DOM) is called.
I'm happy to share some code with you if you need it.

I agree. I only use XSP for instances where I want to use logicsheets. Otherwise I use the file generator if I want to sent a plain XML document that is on disk. For data from other sources, I've been moving towards making java objects that are XMLizable, and having a generator that just calls .toSAX on them. -pete -- peter royal -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
