nodeset() extention in xalan - please help.

[Kiran Halwai]

Hello:

I could not find xalan user mailing list so posting it here - sorry about
that.

I am struggling with nodeset() extention in xalan. Following are the
templates. I have included xalan.jar,
xerces.jar, bsf.jar in the classpath - rather in lib directory of tomcat.
I am getting following error msg -

"Call to extension function failed: http://xml.apache.org/xalan";.

I would really appreciate your help to solve this problem.

Also, is it possible to pass a path of XML element to nodeset(). XML file
could like this.

  <start>
             <option value="alf">A</option>
             <option value="bar">B</option>
             <option value="cat">C</option>
             <option value="dog">D</option>
             <option value="elf">E</option>
             <option value="foo">F</option>
     </start>

Best Regards,
Kiran
