In addition to all the other suggestions, something I've done is I've
used unparsed-text-available() to know whether or not the file is
there, followed by doc-available() to know whether or not the file is
well-formed.
Just using doc-available() will fail if the file is not there or if
it is not well-formed, but I don't know which.

Hi Folks,
I have a folder containing a large number of XHTML files.
I want to know: for each file, is it well-formed?
What is the easiest and fastest way to see if each file is well-formed?
My thinking has been to create a super-simple XSLT program:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
exclude-result-prefixes="xs"
version="2.0">
<xsl:template match="*" />
</xsl:stylesheet>
and then run the XSLT on each XHTML file.
I have a command file (.bat file) that loops over each XHTML file
and runs the XSLT:
for %%i in (xhtml\*.xhtml) do (
echo %%i
java -jar saxon-ee-10.1.jar %%i -xsl:test-well-formedness.xsl
-o:well-formedness\%%i
)
That works, but it's pretty slow.
So, I looked into compiling my XSLT program:
On this SAXON web page it talks about Compiling a Stylesheet:
https://www.saxonica.com/html/documentation/using-xsl/compiling.html
On the page it says:
In simple cases, you can exploit the ability to process an
entire directory of source files using a single invocation
of the Transform command on the command line.
That sounds perfect.
But the web page, as far as I can tell, doesn't describe how to "use
the Transform command to process an entire directory of source files."
What do you recommend?
