RE: [xsl] Exclude Doctype for output HTML

So you're essentially doing the imports in reverse from the order that
I'd recommended. As far as I know, the .NET processor is doing it
correctly. If you're not specifying a doctype in the main template, the
XSLT processor looks for one in any of the imported stylesheets, which
is where it's getting it from. Try specifying this in your AJAX
stylesheet first:
<xsl:output method="html" doctype-public="" doctype-system=""/>

If that doesn't work, take a shot at the other order of imports that I'd
recommended before.

Ok, I am imorting my base template, and am overriding the root
template match for the Ajax request.  I have an xsl:output method to
HTML with no doctype specification here, but it does exist in the
imported template.  So effectively, I am doing what you are
suggesting.  Is it the .NET processor throwing that in there?
Could it be, that with no top level element, that the .NET processor
doens't process this properly?

I'm assuming that by "base template", you mean you have a main
stylesheet that does the bulk of your transforms, and that stylesheet
accepts a parameter that specifies which part of the stylesheet you
want
to use for your output. And one of those parts produces the option
list
you described below.

If that's the case, then the answer is no. Only one output method can
be
declared per stylesheet. You'll need to split off the <option> section
into its own stylesheet, and that stylesheet can have <xsl:output
method="html"/> without any doctype declarations. You can use that one
for your AJAX transformation. However, if that <option> section is
needed in the base stylesheet, you could import it via an
<xsl:import>;
in that case, the templates defined within the <option> stylesheet
will
be available to the base, and the base stylesheet will output with the
correct doctypes as you'd specified; the <xsl:output method="html"/>
from the imported stylesheet will be overwritten by the <xsl:output/>
in
the base stylesheet.

Hope that helps!

Subject: [xsl] Exclude Doctype for output HTML

I need to exclude the doctype decleration from the output for HTML.
There is a base template which sets the output type to HTML and
includes a doctype decleration there, but in the child template I need
to override and exclude the doctype output.  Is this possible.

Platform:  .NET 2.0 XSLT 1.0

The problem:  For an Ajax request, I need to return the <option>
elements for my selector element.  IE does not care to well for the
additional doctype decleration in the selector element.  So I'm
getting:
doctype + <options>...</option><option>...</option>

Thanks,

Karl..
