Okay,

What I'm trying to do was simply modify the existing FopServlet.java file to
accept a url as paramater so that the xml source file and xsl file are read
from the remote server via http and not from the local file system.  I
thought from what i read about the prepackaged java libraries that there
would be a simple way to use a prebuilt java class function to change the
File(xmlParam) where xmlParam would = something like c:\path\to\xmldata.xml
to something like URL(xmlParam) where xmlParam would =
http://url.to/xmldata.xml i seem to be wrong tho.

Like i stated, java is foreign to me.

Thanks tho

:(

Actually what you need to do is, read the examples given in FOP. Look
for FopServlet.java file. It describes how you can embed fop in servlet.

Second thing, you need to pass Document obj of XML file. What are you
getting as xmlParam? If you are getting xml file name, than you need to
create Document object from it before passing it to renderXML method.
For that you should know how JDOM/DOM is working.
