ALARM netscape 8 XML rendering problems?

[cybarber]

I have XML and XSLT rendering problems in IE6 sp2(winxp prof sp2 dutch)
after installing Netscape 8.

This is really really BAD.

My XML files are no longer XSLT transformed using an inline processing
instruction after installing Netscape 8. Also an XML file is not shown in
IE6 (with the default XSLT template).

I have installed netscape 8, twice now with explicitly not selecting the
option to use IE rendering machine for certain pages.

After the first time(three days ago) I did a sytem reset to an earlier point
before Netscape 8.
Problem solved.

Yesterday, again installed netscape 8(didn't expect the problem was due to
Netscape 8) again XML rendering problems

Again a sytem reset and the problem was solved.

Noticed (http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum26/163.htm) others have this
problem aswell.

Netscape was dead and now I will bury it so deep It will never surface.
Internet Explore (7?) is all I need.

I am really PI...d off.

What do you expect from something made by AOL? Get Firefox, the real
"Netscape".

What sort of "system reset" did you use? I've got the problem and tried all
kinds of reloadings and the problem still remains.

Could Microsoft help us please? Netscape has crippled MS IE6, I'd hope MS
would be concerned.

Have you tried uninstalling Netscape?

Used the sandard windowsXP system recovery wizard.
(reset winxp to the version it had before installing Netscape 8)

Yes uninstalling netscape didnot recover the XML/XSLT rendering functions,
so I did a system reset to the configuartion befor installing Netscape 8.

Hi,

I have the same problem you described with xml and NS 8.0... I first
believed this problem was related to the spyware/virus attack on my PC
last week...

Where do you find the "windows XP system recovery wizard"? Will that
affect the files I created after I installed NS 8.0?
Cheers

Maybe this is the plan by AOL to finally win the "browser wars"? Or is it
just pay-back time for M$ after what they did to Netscape?

Unfortunately, I'm on Windows 2000. And, I've unloaded Netscape and its
friends several times, so I'm not sure the "last good system" avoids the
problem.

Netscape was dead and now I will bury it so deep It will never surface.
Internet Explore (7?) is all I need.

I rarely use MSIE6; primarily for Windows Update. I rarely use Netscape;
primarily for the IMAP view of Netscape Mail.

I rely on Firefox 1.0.4, or Mozilla 1.7.8 for browsing.
I rely on Pegasus Mail 4.21c for email.
I rely on 40tude Dialog 2.0.15.1 for news.

MSFT and AOL are fighting for your soul. Do you really need to sell it?

Thanks cybarber,

If you don't want to do a system restore you can do this:

START->RUN

Type: regedit

Hit ENTER

Navigate to the following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Plugins\Extension

Highlight and right-click the node titled "xml" and select delete.

Restart your browser and you should be good-to-go.

Thanks for the tip though After deleting that key IE still fails to render
XML on my machine.

System Restore was the only way I could get IE back to normal.

I tried, Uninstalling Netscape. Installing the MSXML SP2. Restarting
numerous times. Checking XML file types were associated with IE. Checking
MSXML entries in registry.

That's the last time I'm using Netscape! Microsoft, you might want to take a
look at this one!!!

BTW: I hav FireFox 1.0.4, Netscape 8.0.1 and IE 6 installed without any
problems!

You're not talking to MS here. These are peer support newsgroups. If
you want to communicate to MS see this link:

Oh Alright I got it. I had to uninstall Netscape 8 or the registry key just
continues being rewritten.

Hello,

Netscape was dead and now I will bury it so deep It will never surface.
Internet Explore (7?) is all I need.

I OTOH like new Netscape (UI, more accessible tab options,
ability to use IE engine in one tab and Firefox engine in the other one).

BTW, you can solve the problem with XML by deleting
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Plugins\Extension\.xml

You can do this automatically by saving following text as "repair netscape
xml.reg"


REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Plugins\Extension\.xml]



and then running command:
regedit /s "repair netscape xml.reg"
