load a string with XslTransform

[manlio]

how can I load a XSL string (not an xsl file!!) with XslTransform ???

If I use the code:

// Create a new XslTransform class and load the stylesheet
XslTransform myXslTransform = new XslTransform();
myXslTransform.Load("myFile.xsl");

it run, but I need load an XSL string:

XslTransform myXslTransform = new XslTransform();

xslString='<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" xmlns:var="urn:var"
xmlns:userVBScript="urn:userVBScript"
xmlns:userJScript="urn:userJScript" exclude-result-prefixes="msxsl var
userVBScript userJScript" version="1.0"><xslutput method="xml"
omit-xml-declaration="yes"/><xsl:template
match="/"><xsl:apply-templates
select="parameters"/>..........etc.etc.';

myXslTransform.Load(xslString);

and it doesn't run.


thanks,
manlio

manilo,

In .NET 1.1, you would take a StringReader, and pass that to an
XmlTextReader, and then pass that XmlTextReader to the XslTransform class
instance.

In .NET 2.0, that method is marked as obsolete, but there is an overload
which takes an XmlReader, an XmlResolver and Evidence (it's a more secure
method).

Hope this helps.
