RE: Fop Servlet Problems
If it goes white, I would also try: "fo=c:\border.fo&dummy=.pdf". I recently was able to resolve a "white screen" problem with ie because it didn't recognize that its response was pdf without this pdf extension. -Original Message- From: gary cor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 19, 2002 5:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Fop Servlet Problems Mike, I haven't access to it right now.

Re: Fop Servlet Problems
Hi,
I've been using the FopServlet to build a prototype, but the first thing
I did was to change in the
given FopServlet the way it retrieves this files (its dependant on the
'working directory' of your JVM) :
try replacing the doGet method of FopServlet with the one beside.
Then place your fo files in your /WEB-INF/fo
Regards,
Alex.
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws
ServletException {
try {
String foParam = request.getParameter(FO_REQUEST_PARAM);
String xmlParam = request.getParameter(XML_REQUEST_PARAM);
String xslParam = request.getParameter(XSL_REQUEST_PARAM);
if (foParam != null) {
InputStream foInput =
getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/fo/" + foParam);
renderFO(new InputSource(foInput), response);
} else if((xmlParam != null) && (xslParam != null)) {
File xslFile = new
File(getServletContext().getRealPath("/WEB-INF/xsl/" + xslParam));
File xmlFile = new
File(getServletContext().getRealPath("/WEB-INF/xml/" + xmlParam));
XSLTInputHandler input = new XSLTInputHandler(xmlFile,
xslFile);
renderXML(input, response);
} else {
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("Error\n"+
"FopServlet ErrorNo 'fo' "+
"request param given.");
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
throw new ServletException(ex);
}
}

So then I assume I it is just a case of not finding an file.fo but

something to do with it running only in the examples folder I have no

the fo files in the C:\Apache-Tomcat\bin file but still I get the same
errors.
Please can someone help?

PS. I have also found a servlet in saxon for FOP has anyone tried this
out is it easier to get working!
