The stylesheets are executed server side, and the web server is configured
by someone else.
What parameters in the server configuration should I check? Is it possible
to restrict namespace declarations or references to external XML documents?
FYI, this is the complete template. In my attempt to be brief, I
accidentally omitted the definition of the month variable.
<xsl:template name="FrenchDate">
<xsl:variable name="year" select="substring-before(.,
'-')"/>
<xsl:variable name="month" select="substring(.,6,2)"/>
<xsl:variable name="day" select="substring(.,9,2)"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$day"/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of
select="document('')/*/fr:month-names/fr:month[(_at_)num=$month]"/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="$year"/>
</xsl:template>

Subject: Re: [xsl] Problem with document() function on web server
Hi Maria,
I tried two different versions of the document() function to format dates.
Both versions worked on my local hard drive but not on the web server.
I know that I have a more recent version of Xalan on my hard drive,
but I am wondering if something else is causing the problem.
This version of the template, in which the monthnames were stored in
separate namespace, caused the stylesheet to stop transforming.
<fr:month-names>
<fr:month num="01">jan</fr:month>
<fr:month num="02">fév</fr:month>
<fr:month num="03">mar</fr:month>
</fr:month-names>
<xsl:template name="FrenchMonth">
<xsl:value-of
select="document('')/*/fr:month-names/fr:month[(_at_)num=$month]"/>
</xsl:template>
I assume you are being brief here, but just to be sure: where do you define
the variable month?
This version of the template, in which the monthnames were stored in
an external XML file, returned a null value.
<MonthNames>
<French>
<Name num="01">jan</Name>
<Name num="02">fév</Name>
<Name num="03">mar</Name>
</French>
</MonthNames>
<xsl:variable name="FrenchMonth"
select="document('month_names.xml')/MonthNames/French"/>
<xsl:template name="FrenchMonth">
<xsl:value-of select="$FrenchMonth/Name[(_at_)num=$month]"/>
</xsl:template>
I think you can better add a namespace to the external file as well.
For the remainder, I would say that things depend on how you configured your
web server and how you execute the stylesheet. Do you execute them
server-side?
HTH,
Geert
