Marc,

The <xsl:import href="..." /> statement to include routesummarycontent.xsl
is in another XSLT script (routesummaryheader.xsl) which is loaded correctly
from a JSP (routesummary.jsp) using the command <xsl:apply
nameXml="routesummary" xsl="/xsl/routesummaryheader.xsl" />.

To recap; routesummary.jsp calls routesummaryheader.xsl which imports
routesummarycontent.xsl.

We _think_ that the XSLT processor used by Tomcat can't use relative paths
as it doesn't "know" what context it resides in (even if Tomcat does).

Thanks
Geoff

This has to do with how HTTP requests are processed on your server.  You
control (by url pattern matching or some other technique) which "service"
(Tomcat or Apache) gets to handle the request.

Help me out a bit here.  What "language" the tag <XSL> belong to?  Is it a
JSP tag or an HTML tag or what?
