Okay, so the apparent obvious answer to my question is only obvious to me. Look at Mauro's requirements: standalone program, gui or batch processs, XLS and XPath. Yes Cocoon does utilize XPath and XSL but these are easily utilized without Cocoon. Given all of this, WHY would you want to go through the non-trivial task (if you think otherwise I suggest you go back and read the various installation problem posts) of setting up a servlet container with Cocoon? Cocoon is superfluous to Mauro's needs and can only get in the way. Thus my somewhat rhetorical question--rhetorical because I thought the answer to be quite obvious. -- Jacob L E Blain Christen Entheal LLC --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
