transfomer.transfor error when using a DOMSource object

transfomer.transfor error when using a DOMSource object

Hi all,

I am using Xalan 2.5.1 to transform some xml document in a servlet and send the
output html to the browser. I am using a foo.xml and foo.xsl to do this.

When I do something like

<code>
Source xmlSource = new StreamSource(new URL(LOCNXML + "foo.xml").openStream());
</code>

this works perfectly. But I need to actually create the xmlSource from a DOM
object as I have to do some processing on the XML before applying the
stylesheet to it. If I then do

<code>
Document doc = ......;
Source xmlSource = new DOMSource(doc);
</code>

I get the following error

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then
click the Refresh button, or try again later.

Invalid at the top level of the document. Error processing resource "..."
Line 1, Position 39

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm also copying my servlet and xml, xsl files for testing.

can get,
