Saxon » SaxonJS

A non-responsive application in the browser usually means that the SEF has been produced without the necessary namespace option; from the command line this is: -ns:##html5.

Is it possible to set this in the Oxygen XML add-on you're using? (I've got an older version of Oxygen, and I can't see it there unfortunately.)

Oh dear, indeed it looks like this is an oversight for the Oxygen XML add-on; so should be raised as a bug directly with them.

I'm afraid I don't think it is possible to set the options for generating a Saxon-JS SEF using a configuration file. Sorry.

I've invited Octavian (of Oxygen support) to comment here.

We investigated this issue and it seems that the problem is the -ns option, as Debbie said. You cannot set this option from the Oxygen XML Saxon add-on. From what I looked in the code this option must be set in the "XsltCompiler", and cannot be passed through the file configuration.

We added an issue on our side to add the option in the add-on interface, and then set it in the "XsltCompiler". When the issue will be solved we will release a new version of the add-on.

Let me add one other point. The differences between the two SEF files are, I assume, because they were generated by two different compilers. The XJ compiler (written in Java, part of Saxon-EE) does much more static type checking and optimization than the XX compiler (written in XSLT, part of Saxon-JS), so the SEF files they produce will be quite different.

In this instance, the SEFs are in fact both generated by Saxon-EE. The differences all come down to the use of the -ns option.
