RE: Handling Attributes with no values in XML

["ciaran byrne" <ciaran.byrne@xxxxxxx>]

The attrbiute problem can be handled fine in the XSLT process
but, using MSXML3 the XML is first loaded using docXML.loadXML(strHTML)
before the transform using the XSL docXSL.loadXSL(strXSL) takes place.
As a result the XSLT process is never reached since the error occurs at
the loadXML phase and not at the XSLT phase.

In XML, you need to represent that as noresize="noresize". When using the
HTML output mode of XSLT, it automatically gets minimized to the non-value
form.
