Sablotron xsl include() file not found

Hi,

I got this problem including an XSL stylesheet (cannot open file...).
I've been Googling around, and it seems a common problem, but the
solutions don't work for me.

This is the PHP code to parse the XSL file:

$xh = xslt_create();
$fileBase = 'file://var/www/html/site123/pages/xsl/';
xslt_set_base($xh, $fileBase);
$result = xslt_process($xh, 'arg:/_xml', 'arg:/_xsl', NULL, $args,
$params);

This is the XSL include tag:
<xsl:include href="login_box.xsl"/>

I'm not sure whether to use file:// or not. I guess it's for Windows
servers only and we're using Apache/Unix with PHP 4.2. But if I don't
use file://, I get another ugly error (arg not found).

Please don't refer me to:
http://be.php.net/manual/en/function.xslt-set-base.php

Been there, and the provided solutions don't work. I also can't use
getcwd () because I'm not referring to the directory the XSL/XML files
are parsed in. Maybe it has something to do with my PHP version? 4.2
instead of 4.3?

Thanks,

Barton

Found a similar problem when I was messing around with Sablotron.
Instead of using file:// I just used:

$result=xslt_process($xh, '/home/userid/example.xml',
'/home/userid/example.xsl');

And it worked fine, shame it doesnt' like relative links, but it's only
a minor annoyance. Can't comment on what windows would do though.

Hi Anthony, you don't seem to understand me. The problems I got have
nothing to do with arg:/_xml or arg:/_xsl. That works just fine, the
parser correctly finds the XSL and XML files.

Now the problem starts when using the XSL tag <include> in the XSL
document that is parsed. A nice detail is that this XSL file is
located in the same directory as the main XSL file which is correctly
found!

Grtz,

Barton
