I think there is a slight issue, this stylesheet (when run against itself with no output file given) causes the exception "Cannot write to a URI that has already been read":
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">
<xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:result-document validation="strict"> <foo/> </xsl:result-document> </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Well
XSLT 2.0 Spec says
[[ The href attribute is optional. The default value is the zero-length string. The effective value of the attribute must be a URI Reference, which may be absolute or relative. There may be implementation-defined restrictions on the form of absolute URI that may be used, but the implementation is not required to enforce any restrictions. Any legal relative URI must be accepted. Note that the zero-length string is a legal relative URI. ]] it means that absence of @href is equivalente to "" which means the base URI so the document itself
So the error is ok from this perspective
That doesn't seem right to me - you can never write to the same URI, so why would @href be optional? I'll raise it on the xsl-list... -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
