IE not rendering XML content

R

Ricardo

Hello everyone, I've been having this problem for a long
time, when I go to open a website that's using XML and
XSL, IE displays the actual XML content (a tree with its
nodes...) instead of a regular web page (for example, a
form), in other words, I believe is not applying the XSL
style sheet to the XML file. How can I fix this problem?
I'm running IE 6.0 on windows XP pro.

If the file has an extension of .xml try renaming it to .htm

IE seems to use that as a switch for whether to render XHTML
in XML list format or as an HTML document. Unfortunately AFAIK
there is nothing in the UI which would make for a simpler procedure
to allow both ways of formatting XHTML.

Hi Robert,
Even I face the same problem. If I view an xml page in
IE6SP1 on win xp pro, i get the source code instead of the
page. But if i view the same page using IE6 Sp1 on win 98,
then everything is ok...in short, i cannot see xml pages
at all. Can you help me out

See if you can get some clues by comparing the output
of XMLVersionText on both systems.
