Subject: Re: [xsl] IE6:clientside - XML to string? From: "Robert Koberg" <rob@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2001 22:44:36 -0700 |
Hi, Thanks, but the XML tag is the way to identify xml and xsl for IE client-side inside an html document (which is transformed server-side, fwiw). The code I gave would be enough to operate on a W3C DOM (1?) representation of the XML document. It is not the DHTML dom. I was asking for a way to take the DOM representation of the XML document and convert it to a string. IE6, I believe, has fully implemented DOM1 and you can access a downloaded XML client-side with it through JavaScript. thanks, Rob p.s. I would have asked Chris B. directly, but thought his answer could benefit everyone :) > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Joshua Allen" <joshuaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: <rob@xxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Friday, June 22, 2001 8:22 PM > Subject: RE: [xsl] IE6:clientside - XML to string? > > > > You could try > > http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/loadframes.asp?icp=msdn&slcid=us&ne > > wsgroup=microsoft.public.xml > > (I apologize if line breaks appear; should be all one URL) and probably > > get a better answer. > > > > Some things to note -- it is not technically valid in XML to have a tag > > with the name "XML", although IE is lax on this.
