RE: Problem with rendering of &#160

I'm obviously doing something wrong with the transformNodeToObject code.
I get no output using the transformNodeToObject.

Dim Source As New Msxml2.DOMDocument
  Dim stylesheet As New Msxml2.DOMDocument
   Dim result As New Msxml2.DOMDocument
 
  ' Load data.
  Source.async = False
  Source.Load "sample.xml"

  ' Load style sheet.
  stylesheet.async = False
  stylesheet.Load "stylesheet1.xsl"

  ' Set up the resulting document.
  result.async = False
  result.validateOnParse = True
  
  ' Parse results into a result DOM Document.
  Source.transformNodeToObject stylesheet, result

   MsgBox result.xml

Sure, Julian Reschke posted it earlier today.  The MS component always
generates utf-16 when you use it to create strings instead of objects.
Thus there ends up being a mismatch between the declared encoding and
the actual encoding.

This is pretty much a FAQ by now, but until you posted your code no one
could tell what you were invoking the problem.

The solution is not to futz around with the meta element and trying to
trick the browser, but the generate the output using objects instead of
strings.

Once the encoding discrepancy is fixed, the presence of the meta element
will not cause any problems and could even be beneficial (as when the
document is loaded from a file, and thus has no headers to state the
encoding).

Cheers,

Tom P
