Re: Q: How to select different style sheets at run time?

Heiko,

I know you can do this with ASP or VBSCRIPT using MSXML, but then you
are stuck using their XSL implementation. Oh well...I believe the
following works if you are interested:

<%@Language=VBScript%>
<%

  Set XMLDoc = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
  Set XSLDoc = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
  XMLDoc.async = false
  XMLDoc.load(Server.MapPath("test.xml"))
  XSLDoc.async = false
  XSLDoc.load(Server.MapPath("test.xsl"))
 
response.write(XMLDoc.documentElement.transformNode(XSLDoc.documentElement))

%>

Also note that I wasn't able to use an <xsl:stylesheet> element in my
XSL file, because for some reason it didn't like it. I had to use
something like the following:

	<HTML xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl";>
	  <BODY STYLE="font-family:Arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:12pt; background-color:#EEEEEE">
		<xsl:apply-templates select="//*">
			<xsl:template match="foo">
				<H1><xsl:value-of/></H1>
			</xsl:template>
		</xsl:apply-templates>
	   </BODY>
	</HTML>

Have fun.
