Subject: Beginner Problems Updating CLASSPATHS for Saxon Installation
To whom it may concern, I am trying to install and use Saxon on a Windows XP Professional machine by following the directions in Bob Stayton's "DocBook XSL: The Complete Guide", but I am utterly confused. I know how to get to the Environment Variables dialog box, but confused on how exactly to change or add new system variables. When I click to create a new Variable, a dialog box comes up with two fields: "Variable" and a "Value". What do I put in each of those fields if my .jar files are located here: -C:\studies\xsl\extensions\saxon651.jar -C:\studies\saxon\saxon.jar I guess I am unclear of the difference between a Variable and a Value when creating a new Environment Variable and exactly what to put in there. Also the following statement, from "DocBook XSL: The Complete Guide" under the section "Using Saxon" is very unclear to me: "Saxon is a Java application, which means you need to add the appropriate Java class files to your CLASSPATH environment variable. Then you execute the java command with the main processor class as its first argument." I do not know what the appropriate Java class files are? Thank you for helping the lost beginner, René
