Check your spelling in namespace declarations and make certain the class name is coirrect for the version of Xalan you are using. I posted the following to cocoon-users a few weeks ago: This note is mostly for the benefit of anyone else searching for help with Redirect. Sorry if Xalan is a bit off topic for Cocoon2, but I expect that a lot of XSLT users will be using Cocoon as a framework for Xalan-J/XSLT-based applications. I spotted Redirect in Chapter 8(?) of "XSLT" by Doug Tidwell, August 2001, O'Reilly and Associates. It does work in Cocoon2 but I had a few problems getting it to run. I finally solved it by looking at the Xalan-J docs at xml.apache.org as well as the source code for Redirect. The Redirect class seems to have moved from org.apache.xalan.xslt.extensions.Redirect to the more concise org.apache.xalan.lib.Redirect. The comments in Redirect are actually useful! (thank you Mr Boag!) It appears that you need to include several namespaces in the stylesheet tag. This was another source of 'the fog of war' for me. <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" �������� xmlns:lxslt="http://xml.apache.org/xslt"; �������� xmlns:redirect="org.apache.xalan.lib.Redirect" �������� extension-element-prefixes="redirect" �������� ... rest omitted ... This did not work for me when I followed examples from various sources. I have one minor complaint about Redirect (may apply to all extensions). This facility is terrific but it is strangely silent when things go wrong. For example, I used file="concat(... at one point and created a directory named "concat(...". When I had mis-spelled namespace URI's nothing worked and it did so silently. When the lxslt declaration was missing ... same thing. I know I had perms wrong and was rewarded again with silence. Thanks again. Hope this helps. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
