XLST transformNode problem

beyondtron · February 4th, 2004, 04:52 PM

I am having trouble converting an XML file via XSL stylesheets when it is being pulled from a different server. I am certain that I have a working XSL file as I have tested it locally and by manually placing the XML file onto my server. The code that works is:

Code:

<%@ LANGUAGE=JScript %>

<%
var sourceFile = Server.MapPath("news.xml");
var styleFile = Server.MapPath("news.xsl");

var source = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument");
var style = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument"); 

source.async = false; 
source.resolveExternals = false; 
source.load(sourceFile);

style.async = false; 
style.resolveExternals = false;
style.load(styleFile);


Response.Write(source.transformNode(style));

%>

When I attempt to directly pull the XML file from a different site it does not work at all. Here is the code that will not work (using the same XSL file):

Code:

<%@ LANGUAGE=JScript %>

<%
    var xmlHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.serverxmlhttp");
    xmlHTTP.open("GET", "http://www.gamespot.com/misc/rss/gamespot_updates_playstation_2.xml", false);
    xmlHTTP.send;

var styleFile = Server.MapPath("news.xsl");

var source = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument");
var style = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument"); 

source.async = false; 
source.resolveExternals = false; 
source.loadXML(xmlHTTP.ResponseText);

style.async = false; 
style.resolveExternals = false;
style.load(styleFile);

Response.Write(source.transformNode(style));

%>

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!!
