Acts as a holder for a transformation Source tree in the form of a Document Object Model (DOM) tree.

Note that XSLT requires namespace support. Attempting to transform a DOM that was not contructed with a namespace-aware parser may result in errors. Parsers can be made namespace aware by calling DocumentBuilderFactory.setNamespaceAware(boolean awareness).

Create a new input source with a DOM node. The operation will be applied to the subtree rooted at this node. In XSLT, a "/" pattern still means the root of the tree (not the subtree), and the evaluation of global variables and parameters is done from the root node also.
Params:
  • n – The DOM node that will contain the Source tree.

Create a new input source with a DOM node, and with the system ID also passed in as the base URI.
Params:
  • node – The DOM node that will contain the Source tree.
  • systemID – Specifies the base URI associated with node.
