I am guessing that you are expecting to see javax.xml.parsers.* stuff and implementation in Xalan. These are implemented in Xerces, not Xalan. Xalan only implements the javax.xml.transform.* part of JAXP 1.1.

In the documentation (that says D6 at the top) it states: --------------------- The Java API for XML Processing interfaces enable you to isolate your application from the internal implementation details of a given Transformer, SAX parser, or DOM parser. For each of these objects, there is an abstract Factory class with a static newInstance() method that instantiates a concrete Factory which wraps the underlying implementation. These newInstance() methods use system property settings to determine which implementation to instantiate. Xalan-Java is distributed with system property settings for the Xalan XSLT Transformer and the Xerces DOM and SAX parsers. These settings are in xalan.jar in META-INF/services (see src/META-INF/services).
