Looking at the required test base-uri-002 I see this pipeline ---------------- <p:pipeline xmlns:p="http://www.w3.org/ns/xproc" xmlns:t="http://xproc.org/ns/testsuite" xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/ns/xproc-step" xmlns:err="http://www.w3.org/ns/xproc-error"> <!-- This p:identity step makes sure that we grab the root element --> <!-- where the xml:base exists. Otherwise, we get the base uri --> <!-- of the input document itself, and that varies by test env. --> <p:identity> <p:input port="source" select="/doc"/> </p:identity> <p:string-replace match="para[@class]/text()"> <p:with-option name="replace" select="concat('"',p:base-uri(),'"')"/> </p:string-replace> </p:pipeline> ------------------ This implies one or both of 2 things which I cannot find explicitly specified in the specs. These seem to follow other conventions but I cant find them spelled out. 1) if you use a select in p:input then the resulting document's base URI becomes the base URI of the root element of the selected node. and/or 2) The base URI of the output of Identity is the base URI of the root element, not the document My *Guess* is that #1 is what's intended. There is similar verbiage for p:viewport but not for p:input or p:identity "The base URI of the resulting document that is passed to the subpipeline is the base URI of the matched element or document. " I suggest this should be added to the p:input description, as well as other places where "select=" occurs that produces documents, such as in the bindings. For p:identity, I think unless #2 is intended, that the implication is clear, that the base uri of the input document is passed to the output document. -David ----------------------------------------------------------- David A.
