Question

How to load XML (with xslt) generated by javascript into an IFRAME?

Answer 1

A:

Setting the doctype for the output: http://www.bernzilla.com/item.php?id=763

the Doctype is already set in the xslt

Answer 2

A:

I think that the best approach it would be to run the transformation with javascript and then to add result to DOM. As example, from http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/xsl_client.asp

<html>
<head>
<script>
function loadXMLDoc(dname)
{
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
  {
  xhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
  }
else
  {
  xhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
  }
xhttp.open("GET",dname,false);
xhttp.send("");
return xhttp.responseXML;
}

function displayResult()
{
xml=loadXMLDoc("cdcatalog.xml");
xsl=loadXMLDoc("cdcatalog.xsl");
// code for IE
if (window.ActiveXObject)
  {
  ex=xml.transformNode(xsl);
  document.getElementById("example").innerHTML=ex;
  }
// code for Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, etc.
else if (document.implementation && document.implementation.createDocument)
  {
  xsltProcessor=new XSLTProcessor();
  xsltProcessor.importStylesheet(xsl);
  resultDocument = xsltProcessor.transformToFragment(xml,document);
  document.getElementById("example").appendChild(resultDocument);
  }
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="displayResult()">
<div id="example" />
</body>
</html>

A variation on this did the trick. Many thanks!

Answer 3

A:

If supported, data URL can be handy.

iframe.src = 'data:text/xml,' + encodeURI('<x m="l"/>');
