The current HTML generator doesn't support this, it's probably its worst drawback (ie this will soon reach top prority :-) > If not, is there any way to do it? The most simple way is to define a new subclass of InputStream, that creates the output on demand when its read method is called (SSIResource uses such a trick, as does CgiResource - in some sense). A much less efficient way is to use PipedStream (avoid them as much as possible - at least the java.io impl, they are really slow). If any of the above doesn't match your needs, let me know Anselm. BTW: ResourceStore API *is* changing, not up to what we have discussed yet, but enough to make it possible (more on this latter)
