Subject: RE: Bypassing Cocoon formatting for certain
browsers
I tried the hack, but it doesn't seem to work. IE 5 displays
only the text
contents of the copied xml file returned by Cocoon and does
not apply the
xsl formatting specified.
On the other hand, if I manually submit basically the same
xml file to IE 5
it displays correctly. When I compare the xml file that
works with the one
returned by Cocoon to IE 5 (by using the "view source"
command of IE 5),
they are basically identical except for a <!DOCTYPE html ...
> prepended in
the copy returned by Cocoon (but I am not sure Cocoon is the
one that
generates the DOCTYPE line, it might be IE 5).
My interpretation of all this is that when the xml file is
directly
processed by IE 5 it works, but, when basically the same xml
file is
returned by Cocoon, IE 5 tries to process it as if it was an
HTML file (and,
of course, it does not work). I am not sure what triggers
this different
behavior of IE 5. Does Cocoon return some kind of clue that
identifies the
returned object as an HTML file, even when it is supposed to
be an xml file
(I used <xsl:output method="xml"/> in the copy transform)?
Thank you,
Ugo

Hmmm, like many other things that Cocoon is
currently
missing, the
sitemap proposal should handle them
property. This is one of
them.
As a pretty dirty hack (to get it working
now), you can
create a dummy
stylesheet that copies over everything
without touching and
apply it
based on the media type of your particular
web browser.
Hope this helps.
Stefano.
