Hi Carlos,

Thanks for taking the trouble to reply. I did try what you suggested, but I
regret things didn't go quite according to plan. Here's what happened.

First of all I got a ClassDefNotFound on the saxon StyleSheet, so I
downloaded the full Saxon ( i was using instant, ehem ) and put saxon.jar in
my classpath. Now i am getting a TransformerException on
org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser.

In any case, I'm not sure I want to use Xerces. If cocoon comes with Xalan
then maybe I should use that one. I have since discovered that Saxon uses
the AElfred parser ( whatever that is ). So I have an xsl that works fine
with saxon but throws a big bluey in cocoon. Maybe my qestion ought to be
'How can i run at the command line whatever cocoon is doing internally, so
that I can check for errors'

With that in mind, and just for kicks, I tried changing 'xerces' to 'xalan'
in your instrunctions. No cigar.

If someone happens to know what I need to know, please pass that important
information my way. I'd be very grateful.

Best,
Stephen
