    Description

      Make Struts action e.g:

      <action name="DealList" class="DealSheetAction">
      	<result type="xslt" name="success">
      		<param name="exposedValue">{deals}</param>
      		<param name="location">/WEB-INF/xsl/dealList.xsl</param>
      	</result>
      </action>
      

      Supply any XML by including some code like this in action class:

      public String[] getMonths(){
              String months[] =
              {"Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun",
               "July", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"};
              return months;
          }
      

      Supply the XSL file, sort of this:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
      	<xsl:include href="/WEB-INF/xsl/pageHeader.xsl"/>
      	<xsl:include href="/WEB-INF/xsl/pageFooter.xsl"/>
      <xsl:output method="html" encoding="UTF-8" indent="no"/>
      
      <xsl:template match="result">
        <html>
        <body>
        <xsl:call-template name="pageheader"/>
        <br/>
        There are following months in a year:<br></br>
        <xsl:for-each select="//item[position() &gt; 0 and position() &lt; 13]">
        		<xsl:value-of select="."/>,
        </xsl:for-each>
        <xsl:call-template name="pagefooter"/>
        </body>
        </html>
      </xsl:template>
      </xsl:stylesheet>
      

      At a run time it will generate the error:

      [3/24/08 10:05:03:927 EDT] 0000001e SystemErr     R SystemId Unknown; Line #3; Column #51; Had IO Exception with stylesheet file: /WEB-INF/xsl/pageFooter.xsl
      [3/24/08 10:05:03:927 EDT] 0000001e SystemErr     R SystemId Unknown; Line #19; Column #41; javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: ElemTemplateElement error: pagefooter
      

      with the following stack:

      None of the <xsl:include> directive variations ("../filename", "WEB-INF/filename" etc) don't work.

      Short analysis:

      • the URIResolver method in XSLTResult class is accessing the action context to get the realPath and use it as a base for included XSL file:
      protected URIResolver getURIResolver () {
           return new ServletURIResolver (
               ServletActionContext.getServletContext());
      }
      

      Path returned during the test was correct, like C:\Projects\DealApplication\WebContent. The XSL file existed and was well formed.

      Suggestion: the base might be ignored and not applied to URI.
