hi,
Remember that document(.) interprets the URI relative to the source
document, while document(string(.)) interprets it relative to the
stylesheet.
what is actually the difference between "the source document" and the
"stylesheet"?
should an xslt processor (also 1.0 processors like Xalan or Saxon 6.x) resolve
the URI parameter of a document function call - e.g.
document('somedir/somefile.xml') - normally relative to the stylesheet in which
the call is in?
i ask because i noted that e.g. Pyana (Python wrapper for Xalan-C) does seem to
resolve a document call relative to the Python module that actually does the
transformation, or more precisely relative to the main program module (which
may import the transformation module).
some other server products (e.g an ATG-Server) seem to handle it different
again.
is there any reliable or better said theoretically correct way of interpreting
a relative URI? with theoretically correct i mean how it should be for most
processors/configurations or even better as stated said in the xslt
specification (does it say anything about it?).
hope my question makes sense...
thanks
chris

It would be useful to see your source document, and the
actual error message
rather than a paraphrase of it. It's also relevant to know
how you invoked
the transformation (because the base URIs of source document
and stylesheet
depend on this).
Remember that document(.) interprets the URI relative to the source
document, while document(string(.)) interprets it relative to the
stylesheet.

Subject: [xsl] document function issue...
Hello!
I'm still trying and trying to get the document function
running with Saxon
7.9.1
I have opened a lot of threads in other lists and forums but the
informations is unhelpfully...
The following template:
<xsl:template match="url">
<xsl:copy-of select="document(.)/page/*"/>
</xsl:template>
The URL has the following relative path value:
./dir1/dir2/dir3/file.xml
The document function in the template above throws and
invalid URI error.
But the following works well:
<xsl:copy-of select="document('./dir1/dir2/dir3/file.xml')/page/*"/>
So i tried to circumvent Saxon and tried the following (also
not working):
<xsl:copy-of select="document(string(.))/page/*"/>
or
<xsl:variable name="help" select="."/>
<xsl:copy-of select="document(concat('''',&help,''''))/page/*"/>
Has anybody an idea what else i could try?
Thanks very much!
Markus
