Thanx for your quick answer. However It didn't work. I overwrote the setup method in my transformer like this had to catch the ParameterException
public void setup(SourceResolver resolver,Map objectModel,String src, Parameters par) throws ProcessingException, SAXException, IOException { if (par.isParameter("componentTag")) { try { this.COMP_TAG = par.getParameter("componentTag"); }catch (ParameterException pe) { System.out.println("Failed to get parameter \"componentTag\" from sitemap!"); } } } ):, but the parameter COMP_TAG stays on the default initialization value, no matter how I change the parameter in the sitemap. When is the setup method called? I tried to put a system.out.println into setup(), but it didn't even show up in the console :o stefan > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Jorg Heymans > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 21.
