Re: [xsl] Dynamic processing of xml file using xsl and javascript

Geert,

First, thanks for the response.

You are right. outputElement is a variable declared a little above your
quoted code snippet:

  function XSLTransform(outputElement)

>> // replace the JS XSLTransform link with the output fragment
>> // by doing a dom replace of fragment against the original
>> // link (here represented as oldLink).
>> var oldLink = document.getElementById(xsllink);
>>
document.getElementById(outputElement).replaceChild(fragment,oldLink);

>outputElement looks like a variable to me, but I can't find the
definition.


The outputElement parameter is passed near the end of contents.html:

<a href="javascript:XSLTransform('linkoutput')">Frame  a</a><br>



>This doesn't look like valid xml. Try putting your attributes in
double quotes, so:

><xsl:stylesheet

>   <xsl:param name="dn">One</xsl:param>
>   <xsl:output method="html" />

Very strange. My email client must be stripping the quotes out I
suppose. Everything is fine here. Good observation, though.

Yes, I apply the xsl document to the xml document, and get the
following:

<h1>HI!</h1>
<div bgcolor="#8F8FBD"></div>
<h1>Data</h1>


Again, I appreciate the feedback to make sure I'm explaining all this
correctly.
