Re: [xsl] xmlDoc.documentElement Error

Also whether or not you have installed XML 4 is irrelevant. you are using "Microsoft.XMLDOM" which will give you version 3 at best. You should use "Msxml2.DomDocument.4.0" to be certain.

Stupid question perhaps, but are you sure your source document is valid? The only two typical reasons for MSXML giving you a null document element are either because the file doesn't exist (or is unreachable on the server), or an error occurs during parsing. Unless of course you're loading a massive document on a severely memory-limited client...I guess that might cause it too.

PS I'm sure someone will mention that this isn't an XSLT question though :)
