I posted this about a week ago, but here you go again...

public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException
{
... your code
try
{
String xmlString = new String("...."); // your xml
TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
File foFile = new File("foXslFile.xsl");
Source foXslSource = new StreamSource(foFile);
Transformer pdfTransformer = tFactory.newTransformer(foXslSource);
Writer out = new StringWriter();
Source xmlSource = new StreamSource(new StringReader(xmlString));
pdfTransformer.transform(xmlSource, new StreamResult(out));
out.close();
String fopstring = out.toString();
InputSource foSource = new InputSource(new StringReader(fopstring));
ByteArrayOutputStream baout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
Driver driver = new Driver(foSource , baout);
res.setContentType("application/pdf");
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.run();
byte[] content = baout.toByteArray();
res.setContentLength(content.length); // This keeps IE happy!!!!
res.getOutputStream().write(content);
res.getOutputStream().flush();
res.flushBuffer();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.err.println("Exception in init: " + e.toString());
e.printStackTrace();
}
