Mike, This is a dos question If you do this saxon authors.xml replace.xsl > newfile.xml Of course authors.xml remains untouched because the result is in newfile.xml. You cant do this saxon authors.xml replace.xsl > authors.xml Because dos opens authors.xml for redirecting to before saxon opens it so it will be empty and saxon will give you an error on the input file. Error java.io.EOFException: no more input Transformation failed: run-time errors were reported But you can do this Saxon -o authors.xml authors.xml replace.xsl Which will replace authors.xml with the result of the transform. But as people have said it isn't usualy a good idea to do it but saxon will not overwrite the output file if there is an error in the transform ;-) Ciao Chris XML/XSL Portal http://www.bayes.co.uk/xml > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of > Mike Ferrando > Sent: 13 December 2001 17:58 > To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [xsl] xsl:param and replace.xsl > > > Friends, > I am trying to process some xml xsl documents from Michael > Kay's book on page 518 (authors.xml replace.xsl). > > My objective is to use the xsl stylesheet to replace text in > a xml document without creating a new document.
