You can use JTidy to convert your String to an XML stream. It's classes are available in Cocoon!
Here's a code snip out of an XSP page that converts a POST from a brower based html editor to an XML stream.
<xsp:structure>
<xsp:include>org.w3c.tidy.Tidy</xsp:include>
<xsp:include>java.io.ByteArrayInputStream</xsp:include>
</xsp:structure>
<page>
<xsp:logic>
String strContent = request.getParameter("content");
ByteArrayInputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream( strContent.getBytes() );
org.w3c.dom.Document doc = null;
org.w3c.tidy.Configuration conf = new org.w3c.tidy.Configuration();
try {
Tidy tidy = new Tidy();
//Do not show "parsing" messages
tidy.setQuiet(true);
//Do not show warnings in the Servlet Engine console
tidy.setShowWarnings(false);
//set the output type
tidy.setXmlOut(true);
//Set the encoding
tidy.setCharEncoding( conf.LATIN1 );
//Set output options
tidy.setBreakBeforeBR(false);
tidy.setQuoteNbsp(true);
tidy.setQuoteAmpersand(true);
tidy.setLiteralAttribs(true);
//Omit the document type in the tidy output
tidy.setXmlPi(false);
//parse the document tot a DOM tree
doc = tidy.parseDOM(in, null);
} catch (Exception e) {
//Do some error handling here
}
</xsp:logic>
<content>
<xsp:expr>doc.getDocumentElement()</xsp:expr>
</content>You will need to tweak the Tidy parameters, but you get the idea, I guess.
The DOM stream from JTidy is automatically converted to SAX by Cocoon (correct me if I'm wrong) so you can do regular transformations in the pipeline afterwards.

Don't know if this is the only way, nor how to do it in XSP, but what you want to do is
parse the XML. In Java (e.g. in a custom generator) you could say is something like:
InputSource inputSource = new InputSource(new ByteArrayInputStream(page.getBytes())); Parser parser = (Parser) manager.lookup(Parser.ROLE); parser.parse(inputSource, xmlConsumer);
xmlConsumer is a handle for the next stage in a pipeline. I don't know if you can get
hold of that in XSP.
Anyway, hope that helps and isn't completely irrelevant!
