I am using Tomcat's MySQL JDBC connection to connect to my database ,
and then displaying the pages using JSTL tags. So I already have my
data going to a webpage already..

And now I would like to make it possible for users to export to pdf &
excel.  I already wrote an xsl-fo file that converts my .jsp pages and
it works. How do I embed it into my web application using cocoon?

thanks

Hey there! What exactly do you want to do?
I can think in a couple of ways to achieve what you want.
Here are some questions you should answer or think about first:

- Where is the data coming from(postgresql,oracle,mysql,xml data...)

- what connection to it are you using or want to use (jdbc/ldap/jndi ??)

- where should result data go: a webpage, a webfile, a webpage that points
to a certain set of webfiles, a database...?

First of all clarify your mind on these questions and then go to
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/
and check the info.

Here are some other usefull pointers, i'm using:

To search de mailing list:(Always search before posting a question.)

Wikis and other tutorials

There is also an #cocoon irc channel on irc.freenode.net

Good luck,
CarlosN.

ps: wikis are great but beware of cocoon version they refer to.

I installed cocoon 2.1 on Tomcat 5. Its working and
I just went through the sample. However, am still very confused
as to how to integrate this with my web projects.

I need make it possible for users to export data on the fly to EXCEL and PDF.
Am guessing I have to somehow write a pipeline that picks the
URL and request parameters and transform the particular user data on the page
to customer's desired format.
Can someone please direct me on how to begin or are there any articles out there
that can assist me further with this project.?

thanks
