Hi All,
I'm a greenhorn at XSLT so please be gentle :). I'm working
with MSXML 4 and VC++. I'm just trying to do a very simple x-formation
(the customary Hello World!). The result of this x-formation i need as
an object so i use the transformNodeToObject() method. Here it fails
stating that the resulting DOM object is not in proper shape...the
culprit being the <META> tag that get added to the x-formation result
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-16">
...it has no tag closure. This occurs only if I have a <HEAD> tag
defined as part of my xsl file.
Is there some work-around for this ? Or am I going about this in the
right way ?
thanks in advance,
gautam
The XSL file :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" encoding="utf-8"/>
<xsl:template match="/hello-world">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> This is the title </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1><xsl:value-of select="greeting"/></H1>
<xsl:apply-templates select="greeter"/>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="greeter">
<DIV>from
<I><xsl:value-of select="."/></I>
</DIV>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The XML file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="hello.xsl"?>
<hello-world>
<greeter>An XSLT Programmer</greeter>
<greeting>Hello, World!</greeting>
</hello-world>
