The tag I included doesn't display anything.  It just ensures that the file
will be loaded on a user's computer.  If you are using Interdev, a file with
this tag may give you that message, but if you view the page from IE it
should not give you that message.  The tag is there more for IE then for
anything else.  IE uses the tag and determines if the MSXML referenced in
the tag is available on the user's machine.  If it is IE doesn't do
anything, all is well.  If IE doesn't find that version of MSXML or higher
then it downloads the cab and registers the files in the cab.  That way you
know that client side transformations will be done with a version of MSXML
that knows how to handle your namespaces.

This isn't a universal fix.  If you have a user that is running NT or 2000
that does not have administrative rights on their machine, then IE will not
be able to download and use the MSXML referenced in the tag.  These users
will need to get someone who has administrative rights to install the file
to their machine.  Also, user's with security settings that will not accept
downloads could have problems.  For the application I work on we have
included these issues in our FAQ.  I would also encourage you to pull a copy
of the cab file to your web directory and reference it from your wwwroot.
There is no guarantee that MSDN will leave it in the directory the file is
in today (I've been burnt by this in the past).

I tried adding that piece of code in (the exact code with the path changed
to suit my file location as the msdn site) and I'm using it in an ASP page,
but when I run the page, I get blank.  and when I was editing the page in
the ms development environ, I want to change to design view, I get the
error: "An object has failed to load.  The object will be displayed as
text." so I presume it's something wrong when loading the object.
can you please tell me y?

thanx!

I work on an application that uses IE 5.x and up, exclusively.  To make sure
that the XSLT/XSL that is used by the web based application will run on
client machines we make sure that the client has at least the MSXML that we
need installed.  This is done as the user logs into the system using the
following tag in a web page:

<object CLASSID="CLSID:f5078f19-c551-11d3-89b9-0000f81fe221"
codebase="../../controls/msxml3.cab#version=8,00,7820,0" id="msxml3"
VIEWASTEXT></object>

We pulled the cab file from a Microsoft web site.  We have both domestic and
international users and this has been working well for US systems and
European systems.

First, there's a MSXML XSL FAQ at
http://www.netcrucible.com/xslt/msxml-faq.htm

It says that IE 5 and up has XSL in it. XML will not work under XSL without
modification. I've tried. (And to be honest, I do not know if you can even
install additional EXEs to get it to work.)

IE 5, 5.5 comes with an early pre-recommendation version of XSL, namely
"TR/WD-xsl". Consequently, your XSL will work but not all commands are
available. To use the more interesting (and standardized) features of XSL,
you will either have to update to MSXML 4.0 or go server-side.

I can not comment on IE 6 because it is only in beta stage. But it is
interesting that Microsoft does not make any mention of IE 6 supporting XML
on their web site. They do advertise increased CSS and DHTML support
though... (URL:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/preview/fault/default.asp )

I hope this helps.

ok so just to get things a bit more clearer...
XML works on IE browsers from 4 upwards right?
then IE 4, 5 and 5.5 all require extra EXEs such as the SP1 and the
xmlinst.exe etc to be installed for the XSL to work properly on them?
then XSL only works properly on IE 6 without installing anyother EXEs?

IE 5.5 is no better than 5.0 with respect to XSLT.  You need to install
MSXML3 SP1 (This is available as one program including MSXML and the
service pack) and xmlinst.exe to transform XML properly in IE 5.5.

Dear pplz,

I know that XSL and XML works fine on IE6, but as for IE5.5, do you
really
need to install the MSXMLWR.EXE and the xmlinst.exe (think this is the
parser) for the XSL to transform the XML properly? (I downloaded the
exes a
while ago to work on IE5.5, and can't exactly remember their actual
names)
There was at a stage where after installing those 2 exes above, the
browser
still didn't work, and showed a PCDATA problem comment.  So one of my
colleagues found this xml3 sp1 which then made the browser work with XSL
and
XML. (by work I mean allowed the XML to be transformed and show
meaningful
info)
so my question is: Is there anything I can add into the XSL/XML so that
there is no need to install the MSXMLWR, xmlinst and the sp1? Or do I
have
to install all three and this is the only option?
