I am trying to use a saxon extension saxon:output for a chunker utility to produce .epub chunks from docbook. I am using developer 13.2 and running using the GUI.

The following is returning "false":

<xsl:when test="element-available('saxon:output')">

I think I need to some how turn on access to saxon extensions and I believe I have done that properly by adding the following to the extensions dialog: ${frameworks}/docbook/xsl/extensions/ as directed in the documentation. But it isn't working. Any suggestions

Hi Steve,

That extension works only with Saxon 6.5 for XSLT 1.0. For XSLT 2.0 and Saxon 9 please use xsl:result-document instead.

You do not need to set any extension library, saxon:output is built-in in Saxon 6.5. Please make sure the "saxon" namespace prefix is defined as and that you use Saxon 6.5 as the XSLT engine for that transformation.

Best Regards,
George
