Re: [xsl] Opening a document on a server

Never mind.

There must be some law of the universe that once you've asked for help on 
a public mailing list, you'll find the problem that was making your 
solution not work.

Thanks to anyone who posts a response to my query. I appreciate the time 
you spent doing it, even though I have now figured out my issue.

Subject
[xsl] Opening a document on a server






Hi, all,

I need to open a file on a server from within my stylesheet. Suppose the 
server is named Oscar and has a directory named Felix.

document('file:////Oscar/Felix/myfile.xml')

did not work (though some web surfing for ways to do this had made me 
think it would).

Anyone know how to open that file from inside my stylesheet?

I am using Saxon 8.4.

Thanks.
