RE: How to see the output of XSL in IE6 for debuging?

You should be able to set the output method to text.  Of course, that won't
help in IE6 because it does not support that feature.  You could choose xml
as well, but it doesn't support that either.  You will need some sort of
utility (IDE) like Marrowsoft Xselerator to view the text output.

Your theory does sound correct... option 2 should place less load on the
server.  The only problem is that you are then dependent on the IE6
implementation of XSLT.  I'm not an expert in this area, but MSXML 4 is an
update, and not every user will have it.  Of course in an intranet
environment, that can be handled with less hassle. 

I welcome others to please give your opinions/experiences with IE6 and
client side xsl.

Good luck to you.

Well the source is my XML with my XSL as a stylesheet, so I do not see the
XHTML.

Here's a bit more background on my scenario.
I use a servlet (actually a Strut's Action) to generate the output to a
bunch of IE6 on the intranet.
This servlet has 2 way to produce output, either (1) use SAXON to output
XHTML to IE6, or (2) output XML with XSL directly to IE6.

What I noticed was when using (2) the web page is displayed slightly
incorrect, so I want to find out why by viewing the XHTML source.

PS: I am trying to convert to (2) because I believe it will place less load
on the server.


Regards,
Daniel

Maybe I am confused here, but can't you 'View Source' on the output page?

Hi all,

I am using XSLT to transform XML on IE6 into XHTML client-side.

It mostly works, but on occasion I would like to see the output for
debugging, so I can compare the way IE6 handles it versus doing it
server-side with saxon. So how do I view the XHTML output of IE6?

PS: I even tried to use javascript to display ".innerHTML" but got the XML
before transformation.


Regards,
Daniel
