Re: [xsl] XML Question

[LINKE Markus <markus.linke@xxxxxxxx>]

I think I missunderstood something ...

I have this xml-file:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="xml2html.xsl"?>
<a>
    <b>
        <c>ccc</c>
    </b>
    <d>
        <e>eee</e>
    </d>
</a>

and this stylesheet:

<xsl:stylesheet version='1.0'
   xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform'
   xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" 
   >
   
   <xsl:output method="text"/>
   <xsl:variable name="theParmNodes" select="//namespace::*[local-name() =
      'myNamespace']"/>
   <xsl:template match="/">
      <xsl:variable name="theResult">
         <xsl:for-each select="$theParmNodes">
            <xsl:variable name="theNode" select="."/>
            <xsl:for-each select="$theNode |

      </xsl:variable>
      <xsl:value-of select="msxsl:node-set($theResult)"/>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Initially I tried with the XSL-debugger of Oxygen, but that brought the error mentioned below; if I try it just with Internet Explorer I get no result at all (blank page).

Did I forget a step?

Cheers,
Markus
