Re: document()

Hi Pieter.
I did post links to relevant code, even the asp script.
Here is the asp script again:
http://gabbah.no-ip.org/test.asp.txt

Hi Gabriel,

MSXML 3.0 should come up as an uninstallable program. But why not use
version-specific class names in your ASP? Could you please post some code,
as was mentioned?

Cheers,
<prs/

Hmm.. but how do you uninstall MSXML3? It doesn't show up as an installed
program like MSXML4 does...?

Make sure to _un_install MSXML 3 first and then install MSXML 4. And you
are using IIS, that must be restarted to notice the change. Best to reboot

the system...

Good luck..

Hello folks. Sorry for being away a while.
I have now tried the suggestions I got from you guys:
1) Install MSXML 4, perhaps there is a known bug in MSXML 3 that is fixed

in later versions.
2) Try a local path (C:\path\XML\paths.xml)
3) Specifying the second argument of Document()

Here are the answers to those suggestions:
1) Installed MSXML4, and that didn't help. Same behaviour.
2) Local/physical path worked fine.
3) Tried second argument with no success.

BUT, all of the sudden, the relative path started working! I know my
develop environment is not completely stable, so this may be the reason.
So I tried restarting the environment several times and tried an absoulte

path (/mickel/XML.. and http://gabbah....) and relative paths.. but
still, only relative paths work.
But this is good enough for me, at least for the moment.

Hello Oleg.
I will try to summarize my problem once again.

-- General: ----------------------------------
First off, all the XML/XSL files can be found at
http://gabbah.no-ip.org/mickel/

The ASP-file: http://gabbah.no-ip.org/test.asp.txt . This asp script
gets an XML file from a COM object, and transforms it using
http://gabbah.no-ip.org/mickel/XSL/PC/pc-templates.xsl (which in turn
includes all XSL files needed).

I'm using (normal) ASP with VBscript, MSXML3 on IIS5. WinXP pro SP2.

-- Specific: ----------------------------------
The problem only appears when I try to access a static XML file residing

outside the folder where the function document() is used. It does not
matter if the XML file resides in a subfolder or in a sibling folder, as

long as it's in another folder it doesn't work.
The XSLs involved are http://gabbah.no-ip.org/mickel/XSL/PC/search.xsl
and http://gabbah.no-ip.org/mickel/XSL/PC/shared_variables.xsl , which
both use
select="document('../../XML/paths.xml').
So the static XML file I want to access is
http://gabbah.no-ip.org/mickel/XML/paths.xml .

The error I get is that it can't find the specified path.

I have also tried using an absolute path (mickel/XML/paths.xml ) and a
qualified URL like the one above.
I have tried backward slashes.
I have given all folders below wwwroot read permissions to user
"everyone".

Hope I haven't forgotten anything :)
/Gabriel
