( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Hi,

Apart from finding out whether the browser actually tries to load the stylesheet (server logs?) and to check the content type (mime type "text/xml"), there are two additional differences between MSIE and NS which could wreak havoc here:

  • Mozilla (Netscape's engine) does NOT parse generated html from a XSL tranformation, but rather takes the result tree from the transform literally and tries to render this. So you want to transform into valid xhtml
  • MSIE still tries to conform to an early, preliminary XSLT specification which predated the official W3C version. Mozilla doesn't and you shouldn't, because as of MSXML 3.0 (roughly MSIE 5.5, one of those service packs) Explorer is fully compliant with the correct XSLT spec.
This - and more - is briefly documented at Mozilla's XSLT project page.

Cheers, Joe

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
