Hello,

you seem to use the old MS-implementation of an XSLT working draft. This one is no longer supported by MS and should not be used any longer. You will probably get no help here too. (http://www.netcrucible.com/)

If upgrading to MSXML 3 (upgrade to IE 6 is not necessary) is nooption for you, you must think about server side processing.

MSXML 3: http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sample.asp?url=/MSDN-FILES/027/001/772/msdncompositedoc.xml&frame=true

MSXML 4: http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?url=/downloads/sample.asp?url=/msdn-files/027/001/766/msdncompositedoc.xml

Regards,

Joerg

Hi,

This is for IE5. For an XML file like: <xml> <info path="abc.txt"> <info path="abc.jpg"> </xml> I want to check the value of xml/info/path, and if it contains a .jpg or .gif extension, generate an img node, else generate an href node.
I tried the following:
..
<xsl:for-each select="xml/info">
 <xsl-if test="contains(@path,'.jpg')">
   <xsl-element name="a">
    ..
and got an error, "Unknown method contains(@".
What is the right way to do this for IE5?
Upgrade to IE6 is not an option :-(
This is urgent, and I am stuck at this.
Please help out a new XSL enthusiast! :)
Thanks,
