#16228 [Opn->Asn]: XSLT file path issues

ID: 16228 Updated by: msopacua@php.net Reported By: shanx@shanx.com -Status: Open +Status: Assigned -Bug Type: Documentation problem +Bug Type: XSLT related -Operating System: Windows XP +Operating System: Any -PHP Version: 4.1.2 +PHP Version: 4.3.0-dev -Assigned To: +Assigned To: msopacua New Comment: It's not *only* a doc problem. There are/were some issues with how Sablotron resolves the current working dir for the various lookups. It's now being discussed with Ginger Alliance and will be fixed in forthcoming 4.3. In addition these rules will be documented properly, when they are agreed upon and worked out. They should be intuitive as described by Dominik.Klein@lauffen.de and that is the goal. There are however 3 types of relative paths in the entire transformation process: 1) entities and DTD's in data documents 2) documents via the document()/xsl:include etc. directives, in the stylesheet 3) entities and DTD's in the documents fetched in the documents in 1) and 2) -> recursive. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-08 08:17:38] Dominik.Klein@lauffen.de I experienced this issue, too and solved it using xslt_set_base(). Anyway I think that this should default to the actual script-dir (like $PHP_SELF or something) so that you can use relative paths without having to worry about setting the paths right. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-26 01:41:18] mike@graftonhall.co.nz I also agree, this is not a Decumentations Problem and should be reclassified. There is a bug in the xslt_process code that expects relative paths to be relative to apache exe's path (i'm using php as a module) eg for me it looks for files in i:/httpd/apache/. It should be looking in the path of the current script. - Mike :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-11 20:03:36] marklauter@hotmail.com I am also having this problem. However, I don't think this should be considered a documentation problem. I should be able to use relative paths when performing XSL transformations, and I can't. In my opinion, having to specify an explicit path is not a good solution. I don't have to use an explicit path when using include() and shouldn't when using XSLT either. Thanks, Mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-09 16:21:14] jimw@php.net recategorizing as documentation problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-25 14:41:36] hash@huasing.com not really a but, this should work. file://c:/apache/htdocs/xsltest/1.xsl i don't mind prefixing the extra "file://", but at least this should be documented ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
