Axis now running and tested using JBoss on my desktop. I’ve written and deployed a couple of very simple web services which appear to be working fine – they can be called by servlets running on the machine – so that’s what I’m looking for.
I think I’ve also solved the problem I may have had a creating a layout/banner and footer etc. My original problem was that I’d have serveral xslt files, banner.xslt, activity.xslt etc, but then how was I going to allow the users to totally customise the actual layout (eg menu bar on the left or right etc). I think the way to do it is to parse the individual xslt files with the xml, then create another xslt (layout.xsl) which accepts the transformed subsections of the page. This will then provide a whole page customisable using xslt.
