xml / xsl not accessible on netscape & mozilla

[Priyadarshini Anand]

Hi all,

I wrote a xsl file and put it on server. Now xml files are displayed in html format using the xsl file. The problem is, files are displayed on Internet explorer but not displayed on mozilla and netscape.
the error shown is :

Error loading stylesheet: (null)http://......./demo1/directoryInfo.xsl

Where am I going wrong ? What changes i should do in xml or xsl file ?
we are including style sheet in xml files in this way :

 
<?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='http://...../demo1/directoryInfo.xsl'>
 

In style sheet the output is html files as follows :

 
<xsl :o utput method="html" indent="yes"/>

pl help me.

Priya

Which server you're using to serve the XSL file? Does it have *.xsl mapped to the "text/xsl" MIME type?

[Priyadarshini Anand]

I have to use the same server and i have to run the xml and xsl files. Server is not supporting the text/xsl type.I can not view the files on mozilla and netscape. Now what i should change in my xml/ xsl file.

If I remember correctly, Mozilla and Netscape will not process your stylesheets correctly unless you add the MIME type mapping for "text/xsl" into your server (that is, I don't think there's anything you can do in your XML/XSL file to fix this).

It is really very sad for me to know that my project will not work on netscape and mozilla.If anyone can help me to solve the issue any how, it will be really great for me.

Why can't you configure the MIME type mapping for your server?

That depends on which server you're using? If it happens to be Apache HTTPD, for example, then you need to add a line into a file called mime.types as follows:

text/xsl .xsl
