Hello,
I'm trying to open up a new window using javascript. What I would like to
happen is that the current window's XML will be written to the new window
and a new XSL document will be applied to that XML. I understand that I
need to have a content-type: text/xml somewhere to let the browser know that
I am sending it XML and not plain text but I'm unsure how to do that. I've
tried using a document.write ('content-type: text/xml') statement in the
javascript but that doesn't seem to work. Can javascript even pass that kind
of information to a new window?
here's most of my code in the javascript:
var source = document.XMLDocument.documentElement;
var srcwin =
window.open("about:blank","","menubar,height=800,width=600,resizable,scrollb
ars");
srcwin.document.open ('content-type: text/xml');
wintxt = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" ?>";
wintxt += "\n<?xml:stylesheet TYPE=\"text/xsl\"
HREF=\"/newXSLsheet.xsl\"?>\n";
wintxt += source.xml;
srcwin.document.write(wintxt);
I don't want to use transformNode() because I want the ability to resort the
data using the features I've got set up in the new XSL document in the new
window. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jenn :)
