: I am trying to apply style sheet to result xml by passing argument like : stylesheet=tabular.xml . but it complained : that stylesheet may be empty.. when i checked the source code for XMLwriter : .. its lookin under /admin
as noted in the wiki the stylesheet param is (vastly) discouraged ... it never really did anything useful, and is a throw back to the pre-apache days and an assumption that if anyone within CNET wanted to add a local stylesheet they would do it in a special directory that was mapped in the web.xml. In the back of my mind, i was thinking for a while that it would be really nice to revive the styesheet param by ading init params to the XmlResponseWriter that would let you declare a mapping from stylesheet "names" to arbitrary hrefs that you wnat included in the XML output which could be full URLs or they could be relative paths pointing at get-files.jsp (which has since been replaced by a handler/writer pair) but i never got arround to doing it. if anyone else wants to take it on that would be cool. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/XMLResponseFormat "Use of the stylesheet param is currently discuraged, as there is currently no way to specify external stylesheets, and no stylesheets are provided in the Solr distributions (it is a legacy param which will hopefully be revived and given new life at some point in the future)" -Hoss
