Brian thank you for taking the time to respond. The transformation servlet--was based initially on the servlet samples/examples provided with Xalan-J--will accept parameters via the URL, so I am not tied to the command-line method (which I use in XMLSpy). Currently, I do pass in this additional parameter, but it is annoying as the information is already present in the complete URL.
Time permitting I will probably have to write a small class to extend javax.servlet. All the best.
