Sorry it took so long to respond. The servlet works. Yes. But the output never hits cocoon so the sitemap entry is never operative. The response is returned to the requestor like David mentioned. Frankly the capability of outputting from a servlet to an XSL process is the first that I thought of the Cocoon2 should be good at. So I have been suprised that others have not talked about it.
