help displaying XML

Floodster · May 5, 2006

I keep getting this error when trying to view my page on a live server (it works fine on my test machine)

Code:

Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

Ok, I think this is what you are after;

any help would be great.
I have tried one of the pages on an existing site that runs .ASP no problem & I got this error

Code:

You are not authorized to view this page
The URL you attempted to reach has an ISAPI or CGI application installed that verifies user credentials before proceeding. This application cannot verify your credentials.

Floodster · May 8, 2006

OK, I've had a reply from another forum & basically my pages does not contain any XML but Dreamweaver included the line

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

which I think is causing the error, I've been informed that if I remove this line it should resolve it.

Can anyone confirm this??

>You are not authorized to view this page

You have now this error on an asp enabled server. Your page check session("sess_User_logname") etc etc. That's the message you've got. Not the first post. Your first post seems to say <% as invalid. Furthermore, your xslt seems to be css rather. You seem to succeed in making some confusing messages to the forum(s)? I don't know.

Floodster · May 8, 2006

tsuji,
I am getting 2 errors from 2 different servers the first error is on a new server which;

Code:

Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later. 


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource '[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.mbgolfsociety.co.uk/navigation/home.asp...[/URL]

<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>

which I'm hoping will be resolved if I remove the line;

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

The other error was on a completely different server which already has one of my sites hosted, which runs .ASP & that error was;

Code:

You are not authorized to view this page
The URL you attempted to reach has an ISAPI or CGI application installed that verifies user credentials before proceeding. This application cannot verify your credentials.

I hope that makes it clear for you??

JontyMC · May 8, 2006

If you put:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

at the beginning, the browser will interpret it as XML. IE has a default XSL stylesheet it uses to display XML in the browser window (thats why XML displays differently to HTML). IE doesn't strictly support XHTML as such. If you remove the line, IE will interpret it as HTML and you'll be fine.

The ASP problem should be discussed in the ASP forum.
