Hi sebb, Don't know if this is answered yet, but I guess Xalan uses the java standard HttpURLConnection to get the contents as an inputstream. The HttpURLConnection class has a static method 'setFollowRedirects(boolean)', which enables or disables redirection handling for all HttpURLConnections in your JVM. There might be some code that disables this (the default is 'true'). If enabling redirection handling breaks your code, you might want to override the URIResolver for your transformations. In that case, you can implement how external contents is loaded (e.g. you can add caching of resources, etc). Be aware that the URIResolver also handles includes and imports, not only the document() function. Hope this helps. Best regards, Dennis
