Not knowing how to write a reader or a serializer I think I'm going to have to run a batch process, something like the following in BASH/Perl and sabletron (because it was installed.)
DIR=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-3.3.1/webapps/cocoon/content ls $DIR/*.xml > /tmp/xmlfiles for i in `cat /tmp/xmlfiles` do sabcmd $DIR/base64tiff.xsl $i $i.64tiff perl -MMIME::Base64 -ne 'print decode_base64($_)' <$i.64tiff >$i.tiff convert $i.64tiff $i.jpg done My stylesheet -simple <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:value-of select="//ContentItem/Encoding[@Notation='base64']/DataContent"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> However, all of my tiff base64 files have <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> prepended to them - I'm curios as to wether or not their is a way to avoid this at the top of xsl processed files using standard xslt techniques?
