Description Richard K 2013-11-08 14:33:53 UTC 
Currently Ant's xslt task can use an XML catalog only for file/url look-ups within the transformation.  The initial stylesheet must be specified as a file, using the "style" attribute or element.
I also do XSL transformations using Saxon via Ant's Java task.  Saxon can accept the stylesheet as a URL, and use the catalog to look-up the actual file.

My request is that Ant's xslt task be modified so that it too can accept the initial stylesheet parameter as a URL and look it up using the catalog.
