Alex, There is a bug/feature in the XInclude transformer which assumes that unless a base attribute is specified somewhere, the <xi:include/>'s href value is a filename, and prepends the Cocoon install path in front of it. This is probably turning your "http://slashdot.org/" into "/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/Cocoon/http://slashdot...". The solution is to add a base="http://slashdot.org" attribute either at (I believe) or above (for sure) the <xi:include/> element. Then just use the document portion of the desired URL for the <xi:include/>'s href attribute (href="/slashdot.xml").
This fixed things for me. -Mitch -----Original Message----- From: Alex Kachanov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 3:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Xinclude to include could anyone give me a simple example on how to include xml content from http://slashdot.org/slashdot.xml into my xml file without using sitemap (aggregate or whatever) cocoon2 documentation tell how to include the local file <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <page xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"> <title>Hello</title> <content> <para>This is my first Cocoon page!</para> <xi:include href="include.xml" parse="text"/> </content> </page> works perfectly but <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <page xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"> <title>Hello</title> <content> <para>This is my first Cocoon page!</para> <xi:include href="http://slashdot.org/slashdot.xml" parse="text"/> </content> </page> won't work Any clues? with best wishes Alexander Kachanov --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
