RE: Problem instantiating XMLDOMDocument node within <xsl:script> in IE5

["Didier PH Martin" <martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Amit,

So the conclusion form your test seems to be that the XSL script host do not
support the createObject function. The JScript script engine may be one
without the createobject function or that the script engine has some setting
allowing it to have this function removed.

Thanks for your reply.
I tried the option b) but things still did not work.
I get the the same old error msg.

"Microsoft JScript compilation error
Expected ';' line = 4, col = 7 (line is offset from the tag).
set objXMLDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");"

>b) the host has the object instantiation feature but the

I think your hypothesis b) holds.
since the MS documentation on scripting also
suggests something along similar lines...
It goes like this:

"For security reasons, script called from XSL
currently cannot instantiate COM objects"
