Hi,

I am using Saxon from the command line. My stylesheet pulls in xml files using the doc() function. The paths are relative to the input XML not the stylesheet. Is it possible to set the base-uri of the stylesheet to the same as the input xml?

Thank,

The base URI is a static property - you can't change the base URI of the stylesheet at run-time.

However, you don't need to. The specification of doc() is that it resolves a relative URI relative to the stylesheet. We need to see exactly what you are doing so we can see what's going wrong.

Thank you Michael,

My stylesheet, input xml and xml fragments are all located in different folders.

for example

c:/data/stylesheets/my.xslt

c:/data/content/pm/input.xml

c:/data/content/dm/fragment.xml

c:/data/content/graphics/mygraphic.png

so in my fragement.xml file, there is attribute @href="../../graphics/mygraphic.png"

I need to resolve this to: c:/data/content/graphics/mygraphic.png

Its a bit hard to explain, so I apologize if I am not clear.

Thanks for the help

No need to apologize if you're not clear, just don't expect an answer.

I can't tell why your code isn't working, you haven't shown any code.

You'll find that by collecting together the information needed to explain the problem fully, you are more than half way to solving it.
