The priority is strictly linear based on the order in the maverick.xml file.
The view will always run first, the the transforms will be run in the order
they appear. In this case, the jsp "queryResult.jsp" will run first. The
output of that jsp will be run through the stylesheet "lookAndFeel.xsl".
Then the output of that transformation will serve as the input for the fop
transform. Couple of things to note. Since the result of queryResult.jsp
will serve as the input to lookAndFeel.xsl, you need to make sure that
queryResult.jsp produces a valid xml document. Then you need to make sure
that the input to fop is a valid fo document. The maxTransforms param is
excellent for debugging this as you can use it to halt the transform process
at a given step.

No worries. I'm struggling to learn portuguese right now, so I understand
how it is.
