This is how I do it Websphere 4.
Using Websphere Application developer I put the jar files
into the WEB-INF/lib directory in my war file. If using VAJ
just add some entries to the WS Testenvironment classpath to
where these are.
I then used the code examples in the docs.
here is a little code snippet
( it's contextual to my program and I use the oracle xml/xslt
engines as well. )
import org.apache.fop.apps.Driver;
import org.apache.fop.apps.Version;
import org.apache.fop.apps.XSLTInputHandler;
import org.apache.log.*;
if ( sUseFOP.equals("Y") ) {
XMLDocumentFragment foDocFrag =
processor.processXSL(xsl, resultXML);
XMLDocument foDoc = new XMLDocument();
foDoc.appendChild( foDocFrag);
renderXML((Document) foDoc, response, outW);
} else {
processor.processXSL(xsl, resultXML, outW);
}
HTH, Jason

You are asking for something big. Moreover, i can't
quite figure out what your actual requirements are.
The easiest way seems to be to contact your friendly
IBM support.
Other than that it would be useful to know:
1. How much experience do you have in running WebSphere
and deploying code for WebSphere?
2. How much experience do you have in Java programming
in general and in servlet/JSP stuff in particular?
3. How extensive have you already dealt with XML stuff?
4. How much experience do you have in developing
XSLT/XSLFO?
5. How much experience do you have in running FOP?
6. What do you mean by "batch job"? Conventionally
this is not used in assiciation with a web application
server.
