RE: Default stylesheet
Glen,
Thanks, I will just have to pass another tag through & keep using -xsl then.

Roland

But the user is not necessarily using Xalan, we use
JAXP internally, which is XSLT-processor-agnostic, and
I'm unsure but doubtful that the xml-stylesheet
processing instruction can be supported by JAXP.
Best option here is to just specify -xsl { filename }
at the command line, just use the filename you have in
the XML document. That's what all the other
command-line users do, whether or not they bother with
the xml-stylesheet PI. Apparently xml-stylesheet[1]
is mainly for browsers anyway.
HTH,

I think FOP can do it, it just needs to not set the -xsl flag and/or this error turned into a warning: "[ERROR] XSLT file must be specified for the tranform mode" ie let xalan spit the error if there's no processing instruction. I don't know Java, any hints on where to start with this?

Oh--now I see, it means a stylesheet embedded within the XML file.

Re: Default stylesheet
I don't know what a XSLT "default stylesheet" is -- checking the XSLT Rec for "default" is not showing any place where this is defined. (I believe browsers have them, but that wouldn't be applicable for our discussion here.) But if his input XML is already XSL-processable (perhaps indicated by the fact that only a default stylesheet would be needed to "transform" it), I think FOP can do this already. How about: fop -fo abc.xml -pdf abc.pdf Glen --- Jeremias Maerki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You're welcome to write a patch for the code in CVS > HEAD so we have this > feature ready when we're ready to start releasing > again.

Re: Default stylesheet
You're welcome to write a patch for the code in CVS HEAD so we have this feature ready when we're ready to start releasing again. Obviously, this isn't implemented in FOP 0.20.5.
