Is anyone else using the orion XSLServlet? I have been trying to use xsl:variable and xsl:parameter, e.g. <xsl:variable name="images">/common/images</xsl:variable> This should be allowed at the top level However, trying to process an xml request through this stylesheet yields the following message: Internal XSL-parser error: java.lang.RuntimeException (createDocument() not supported in XMLParserLiaisonDefault!) If I remove the variable declaration, everything works fine. There are no reference to the variable yet... Another issue is the use of special characters, such as ©, or a bullet (•) within the xsl stylesheet. Each of these displays an additional character in front of the special character, e.g. ©.
