Hello, I imagine a search engine which would propose several relevant paragraphs in several books of a small digital libraries. The user woud click on the first result and cocoon serves the 2nd paragraph of the 3rd chapter of Genesis of the Old Testament of the Bible (in other words: http://url/bible?select=1/1/3/2 )
It would be then nice to be able serve a subtree of my choice. I would also like the user to be able to browse a tree-like structure of this small digital library. The user opens the "Bible" node and then the Genesis node and then its first subchapter. Then he closes everything up and opens the, say, Shakespeare node, and then Macbeth and then its acts. The idea, I guess, is to build an arborescent structure of books. * I am no expert in XSLT processing but somehow I took for granted that isolating a *small* subtree of a *big* XML should not mean actually scanning the whole big file. I suspect however that Xalan validates the XML before doing the transformation which is slow because then the *entire* file has to be actually scanned. In that sense, I wonder if it is possible to disable validating. Best regards, Adrian.
