[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] RE: Declaring internal entities in an xsl-file
 I would also like to use CSS, but this thing must work with old browsers as well. You example works but produces the same error as before when I set the parser to ValidateOnParse = True, I'm using the MSXML2.DOMDocument parser. The error I get is: The MS parser does all kinds of what I think are strange things. But yes, in this case I'd go ahead and shut off validation. Per the thread on XSL-List earlier this week (I know, the archive is down), validation and XSLT processing do not generally play well together, even with other (non-MS) parsers. That's because the XSLT elements and variables are in a different vocabulary than the result tree's (XHTML's, in your case), and it can be quite tricky to "merge" them into one vocab, with one DTD. I don't think it's necessarily "bad practice" to create documents that haven't been validated, especially in the case of XSLT where it can actually be bad practice (as you're finding) to *force* validation. If your source document is valid, that's the important thing -- let the well-formed XSLT be checked for XSLT syntax errors by whatever XSLT processor you're using, of course, but otherwise don't think about validation in a core-XML sense. (Just my opinion, others undoubtedly feel differently.) ==================================================================== John E.
