Thanks for remembering me on that. I had a look on it some time ago,
but I don't use it, mainly because it requires ActiveX to be activated
in the browser. But I certainly did not know the superb documentation
"Howto", which was a great help for me to sort things out
I did not, however, solve my IE6 problems. As it seems I don't have an
XML document:
alert(document.xml); ... undefined
alert(document.documentElement.nodeName); ... HTML
document.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath"); ... Object
doesn't support this property or method
Here is my checklist:
1. the browser gets an xml file from the server with application/xml
2. the PI triggers the XSLT which is served with application/xsl+xml
3. the xsl:output method="xml"
Is something missing here? Or is my diagnosis wrong?

Hi,
From a posting back in 2004 by Dimitri Glazkov, speaking about IE (I
would be interested in the second case only):
I mean, you can very much do XPath in JavaScript, except it can
only occur in two
cases (that I know of):
1) As call to an Msxml.DOMDocument object, created using the new
ActiveXObject() statement.
2) If an HTML document was generated as a result of a client-side
XSL transformation
from an XML file.

3) on the current HTML document that is loaded in the browser. However,
note that you have to reload it in a freethreaded DOM object to make it
work with XSLT (iirc).
4) in an msxml:script object, though I wouldn't recommend it.
Using XSLT in a browser through JavaScript is usually easiest with the
excellent open source Sarissa, which takes away the burden of little
differences in calling XPaths directly (i.e., the function parameter for
the namespace is at the end in FF/Op and at the beginning in IE).
