I've been building an XML based website. I've got a nice working
environment for the screen. I have the following association:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="scripts/slideshow-tables.xslt" media="screen"?> This produces a slide show and a bunch of navigation features. I want to make a corresponding "for print" stylesheet. I added this: <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="scripts/slideshow-tables.xslt" media="screen"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="scripts/slideshow-print.xslt" media="print"?> My screen presentation switched to the print style - which I didn't want. Looks like the last stylesheet read is what is used. I made the next change: <?xml-stylesheet alternate="yes" type="text/xsl" href="scripts/slideshow-print.xslt" media="print"?> The alternate='yes' seems to have at least kept my original stylesheet being read for the screen. I'm not sure if the media='screen' has anything to do with it. The media='print' certainly is not producing the result I want. When I do a print preview with FireFox, I don't get my new print arrangement. FYI results seem to be the same in IE as well. The xml-stylesheet spec indicates that this is supposed to work like the <link> tag for CSS, so I thought this would work. I need more support than what CSS will allow and I want to write a second XSLT stylesheet to handle the different formatting. The biggest thing I need to do is convert my slideshow from Javascript arrays and a Javascript player to be in line <img> references. That's the reason I want XSLT instead of CSS for this task. Any suggestions how I can handle this with XSLT/XML/HTML techniques? I would like the stylesheet to be automatically triggered when someone hits the print button. My only other thought is to add a button on the webpage that will trigger some Javascript to process the XML content with a different stylesheet and then pop that up as a new window. Anyone got some example code that would call an XML file and apply a stylesheet? ..dan
