RE: [xsl] Problems doing XSL Transformation using ASP

[Mukul Gandhi <mukulgw3@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry I did'nt knew Msxml2 is MSXML3. I applied the
XSL to XML *without changing anything* with MSXML3
(not through ASP but with xmlspy) on Win2K. The
transformation succedded. 

I am curious, if you know the answer -- What does the
number "2" signify in Msxml2.DomDocument ?

Regards,
Mukul
