Here’s something I discovered while making an XSLT file for transforming some XML data into a CDF file. I wanted to view the .xslt file in IE to see if it was well-formed. Nothing showed in the browser????
So, when reducing the problem I found the following, which you can try yourself. Create a new text file with an .xslt extension and type or copy this fragment:
<xsl:stylesheet version=“1.0“ xmlns:xsl=“http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform“>
<xsl:template match=“/“>
<CHANNEL/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
It’s the combination of a .xslt file extension and the CHANNEL element. Try changing the extension to .xml and it shows in IE. Change the name of the CHANNEL element (into CHANNE for example) and it shows in IE.
Anyone for an explanation?
