[xsl] XMLDOM xml to html translation problem

[Joseph Coffman <jcoffman at rospo1 dot bbn dot com>]

I've searched high and low for a solution to this seemingly simple 
problem.  I'm using ASP on a win2000 server machine running IIS5.0 and 
attempting to translate an xml to html using an xslt script I have 
written.  I have found code in numerous places doing this translation 
serverside using the XMLDOM transformNode method.  I have attempted to copy 
the code but as yet have been unable to make it function correctly.  Rather 
than printing the translated HTML, it prints the xsl document to the client 
browser.  Included below is the actual code being used, I would appreciate 
any feedback.

thanks

*****************************************************************************
<%@ LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %>
<!--#include file="adovbs.inc"-->

<%
   resume_file = Request.querystring("resume")

   xml_file = Server.Mappath("xml/" + resume_file)
   xsl_file = Server.Mappath("xml/resume.xsl")

   set xmlPage = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
   xmlPage.async = false
   xmlPage.load(xml_file)

   set xmlStyle = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
   xmlStyle.async = false
   xmlStyle.load(xsl_file)

   Response.Write xmlPage.transformNode(xmlStyle)
%>
*****************************************************************************
At this point the client browser receives the xmlStyle page, NOT the 
translated page.  Any idea why?
