Re: [xsl] Error message saying doc is not well formed, has >1 top level element

---

---

If this is of any help: I could reproduce a similar effect using
saxonhe9-2-0-2j.zip, by
setting
   <xsl:output standalone="yes"/>  <!-- or "no" -->

and by coding this (full XSLT below):

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:call-template name="tempa"/>
    <xsl:call-template name="tempa"/>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="tempa">
    <foo/>
    <bar>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="/*"/>
    </bar>

Only with the second call-template, it reports for the <foo/>line:

Error on line 13 of strip.xsl:
  SEPM0004: When 'standalone' or 'doctype-system' is specified, the
document must be
  well-formed; but this document contains more than one top-level element
  at xsl:call-template name="tempa" (file:/home/wlaun/XSLT/strip.xsl#8)
Transformation failed: Run-time errors were reported


If, however, the <foo/> line is omitted, there's no runtime error,
although the result isn't well-formed either!
<bar>...</bar><bar>...</bar>

Variations are possible by calling two different templates, etc.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
 <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="2.0">

  <xsl:output standalone="yes" indent="yes"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:call-template name="tempa"/>
    <xsl:call-template name="tempa"/>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="tempa">
    <foo/>
    <bar>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="/*"/>
    </bar>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="tempb">
    <bar/>
    <foo>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="/*"/>
    </foo>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="@* | element() | comment() ">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

DITA toolkit is doing its own message formatting, or it could be because it
comes from somewhere other than Saxon. It would be useful to know your
processing pipeline, e.g. if the result tree is being serialized and then fed
into an XML parser, the error could conceivably relate to the result document,
and the point at which it is reported could be random because of output
buffering. However, unless you're doing this, I wouldn't expect to see this
error reported on a result document.

after trying hard, it's because you're looking in the wrong place.

stylesheet, but this template outputs the main result tree, and the only
output declarations that mention doctype-system are named ones, AFAIK.
