Subject: RE: JScript error handling in msxsl ? From: Jonathan Marsh <jmarsh@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 9 Mar 1998 11:03:11 -0800 |
-----Original Message----- From: Dave Carlson [mailto:dcarlson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, March 08, 1998 6:30 PM Is there a way to handle JScript errors in msxsl? When using JavaScript in a browser, you can define an error handler for the window, but I can't find an equivalent object for handing errors in MSXSL. No, there is no equivalent in MSXSL at this time. See the example below. In Microsoft's MSXSL processor, the getAttribute() function throws an error and aborts processing of the stylesheet if the attribute is not present. I have a document element with several optional attributes, and I want to print those that are present. I can't find any way to make this work, short of creating a whole bunch of alternative rules that check for all permutations of attribute presence in the rule condtion. This is a bug in MSXSL. GetAttribute should return NULL if no attribute is found, instead of generating an error. The only workaround right now is the "whole bunch of rules" path. Remember the words "Technology Preview".
