Can anyone tell me (or point me to an article that tells me) how to produce a canonical form of an XML message. I need to do this before I produce a public / private key pair signature for the message.
If anyone knows of a good article on Canonical form I would be interested in that too. The only document that I have managed to find is the W3C white paper and that is completely illegable.
Please do not post the same question to more than one forum, as you have done here. It leads to duplicated efforts. [ December 15, 2005: Message edited by: Ulf Dittmer ]
Now I just need to know how to do it in Java. Anyone any ideas?

One of the obvious approaches to this problem would be with an XSLT stylesheet and perform a transform on the XML. Anyone know where I might find a stylesheet for this? I can't help feeling that this is a standard transform and that there therefore should be a standard stylesheet for it.

Someone has posted what looks like an answer to this question over on the server side forum here:
I still have a question about the different types of the canonical form. I have added this to the same thread on the Server Side forum so please check out the above link.
All help still grateful received.

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
