asp_web_howto thread: IE6 shows blank page
Message #1 by "Alex Shiell, ITS, EB, SE" <alex.shiell@s...> on Tue, 26 Mar 2002 14:52:29 -0000

Does anyone know why a page which works fine in IE5, and IE5.5 would show up
blank in IE6?
Doing view source just shows
<HTML>
<HEAD>...</HEAD>
<BODY></BODY>
</HTML>
This is an xml page anyway, so I don't know where this source is coming
from. The server is moset definately providing the right source, so how is
it not reaching IE6?

Check that the xml stream has a mime type of text/xml...seems it's trying to
interpret it as html so isn't recognizing any tags and defaults the basic
tags to the client.

Hi Alex,
I don't know about IE6, but IE5 and 5.5 do a behind-the-scenes XSLT to
give that collapsible xml view (which is actually HTML and JS) - maybe
something is going wrong with that transform? Can you give us any more to
go on?

Then, basically, I'd suspect that the stream is empty although the source is
OK, look for something using...
response.write "typename xmlObject: " & typename(xmlObject)
response.end

OK, I've narrowed it down - it is a problem with the XSL stylesheet.
Unfortunately IE6 does not give you an error notification when there is a
problem with a stylesheet, it just gives you a blank page... does anyone
know how to turn on stylesheet error reporting in IE6? theres nothing
obvious in the options.
Furthermore, it can't be that its not well-formed or whatever, as it works
fine in IE5. Is there anything in WD-XSL that does not work in IE6?
(By the way, thanks for your responses guys)

If the stylesheet is calling for a style object not supported by IE6, it'll
bomb like this...check what attributes might be causing trouble, like
display, etc.

Hi Alex,
I don't know how to turn on stylesheet error reporting in IE6, but have
you tried running the transform in the browser using client-side js or vbs
and the msxml dom? That would give you access to the parseError etc
properties which should help sort it out. (I'm assuming that at the
moment you just have a reference to a stylesheet in the xml.)
BTW which ver of msxml does ie6 use?
HTH

One would assume everything that was supported by IE5 would be supported by
IE6...

OK, I've narrowed it down - it is a problem with the XSL stylesheet.
Unfortunately IE6 does not give you an error notification when there is a
problem with a stylesheet, it just gives you a blank page... does anyone
know how to turn on stylesheet error reporting in IE6? theres nothing
obvious in the options.
Furthermore, it can't be that its not well-formed or whatever, as it works
fine in IE5. Is there anything in WD-XSL that does not work in IE6?
(By the way, thanks for your responses guys)

Hi Alex,
I don't know about IE6, but IE5 and 5.5 do a behind-the-scenes XSLT to
give that collapsible xml view (which is actually HTML and JS) - maybe
something is going wrong with that transform? Can you give us any more to
go on?

Doing view source just shows
<HTML>
<HEAD>...</HEAD>
<BODY></BODY>

This is an xml page anyway, so I don't know where this source is coming
from. The server is moset definately providing the right source, so how is
it not reaching IE6?

IE6 uses MSXML3, but presumably support for WD-XSL should not have changed
from MSXML2.
In any case, I've installed MSXML3 in replace mode on my machine with IE5.5,
so that has the same XML engine...
I have another stylesheet which works which is very similar, so I'll need to
scrutinise the two and see what the differences are... I'll keep you guys
posted.

Hi Alex,
I don't know how to turn on stylesheet error reporting in IE6, but have
you tried running the transform in the browser using client-side js or vbs
and the msxml dom? That would give you access to the parseError etc
properties which should help sort it out. (I'm assuming that at the
moment you just have a reference to a stylesheet in the xml.)
BTW which ver of msxml does ie6 use?

Hi,
I'm not sure IE6 supports the XSL-WD as this was before the W3C spec.
Please correct me if i'm wrong, but i think with MSXML3.0 sp2 and above
XSLT is more appropriate.

yes, it is backwards compatible with WD-XSL. XSLT may well be more
appropriate, but only about 10% of my users have IE6, wheras the rest are on
IE5 or 5.5, so XSLT is not much use to them. Besides the application was
written originally for IE5, it should still work in IE6.
