Script Syntax

strValue = oXMLDOMNode.transformNode(objStylesheet);

Parameters

objstylesheet

An object. A valid XML document or DOM node that consists of XSLT elements that direct the transformation of this node.

Return Value

A string. Returns a string that contains the product of the transformation of this XML document based on the XSLT style sheet.

Example

The following Microsoft® JScript® example fills an HTML DIV tag with the result of transformNode.

<SCRIPT>
   // Load data.
   var source = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.5.0");
   source.async = false;
   source.load("books.xml");
   if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
      var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
      alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);
   } else {
      // Load style sheet.
      var stylesheet = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.5.0");
      stylesheet.async = false
      stylesheet.load("sample.xsl");
      if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
         var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
         alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);
      } else {
         // Fill a div tag with the result of the transform
         divInfo.innerHTML = source.transformNode(stylesheet);
      }
   }
}
</SCRIPT>

Visual Basic Syntax

strValue = oXMLDOMNode.transformNode(objStylesheet)

Parameters

objstylesheet

An object. A valid XML document or DOM node that consists of XSLT elements that direct the transformation of this node.

Return Value

A string. Returns a string that contains the product of the transformation of this XML document based on the XSLT style sheet.

Example

The following Microsoft® Visual Basic® example displays the result of transformNode.

Dim source As New Msxml2.DOMDocument50
Dim stylesheet As New Msxml2.DOMDocument50

' Load data.
source.async = False
source.Load "books.xml"
If (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) Then
   Dim myErr
   Set myErr = xmlDoc.parseError
   MsgBox("You have error " & myErr.reason)
Else
   ' Load style sheet.
   stylesheet.async = False
   stylesheet.Load "sample.xsl"
   If (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) Then
      Dim myErr
      Set myErr = xmlDoc.parseError
      MsgBox("You have error " & myErr.reason)
   Else
      ' Do the transform.
      MsgBox source.transformNode(stylesheet)
   End If
End If
