[thelist] Running msxml

[jon hall]

You need to download both of the files he linked. MsXSL is a
standalone program and not distributed with MSXML, it comes in a zip
all by itself, and it's named msxsl.exe conveniently :).
You will want to run msxsl.exe with the command line that Brad posted.

What's the end goal here? Are you just learning XSL or are you
implementing something based using the command line program?
I've never done it that way...I prefer not to shell out for
anything, too much overhead (on Windows anyway).

I think most people prefer to interface with MSXML via the COM
interface, for which you can find many examples of how to transform an
XML doc using XSL (hint: transformNode()).

My fav msxml reference.
