Thanks David. I have been using the style tasks several times in the past but I need something more powerful. The generation mechanism that I am using generates not only HTML but also PDF documents. What I find strange is that the exception stack trace is detailed in the generated page but that I couldn't get it to be thrown by cocoon. Is there no way to do that ?
