I'm new and although I've looked through the list archive, I'm not sure that the postings about Java and DocBook XML necessarily address implementing a java server page to serve up DocBook XML as HTML on-the-fly. Most of the postings appear to address creating HTML output to a file rather than through a web server. I am just learning about java, so this question may be rather naive. I have a fairly small set of documents which only use a subset of the DocBook DTD (something slightly larger than the Simplified DTD). Does anyone have an example they might be willing to share that does this type of transformation via a jsp (or is there documentation that might be relevant that I should read)? Is Norman Walsh's XSLT the preferred stylesheet transformation and can it be customized to only deal with the subset I'm using?

Sorry, no jsp examples, but yes it can be (and is being done). Try some jsp sites.

If your docbook is a true subset of docbook then the stylesheets should work fine for you.
