Processes this node and its children using the supplied XSL style sheet, and returns the resulting transformation.
Visual Basic Syntax
strValue = oXMLDOMNode.transformNode(objStylesheet)
C/C++ Syntax
HRESULT transformNode(
IXMLDOMNode *stylesheet,
BSTR *xmlString);
Parameters
stylesheet
[in]
Valid XML document or DOM node, which consists of XSL elements that direct the transformation of this node.
xmlString
[out]
String that contains the product of the transformation of this XML document based on the XSL style sheet.
C/C++ Return Values
S_OK
Value returned if successful.
E_INVALIDARG
Value returned if stylesheet or xmlString is null.
Remarks
The stylesheet parameter must be either a DOM Document node, in which case the document is assumed to be an XSL style sheet, or a DOM node in the XSL stylesheet, in which case this node is treated as a stand-alone style sheet fragment.
The source node defines a context for the stylesheet to operate on, but navigation outside this scope is allowed. For instance, a stylesheet could use the ancestor or id methods to access other parts of the document.
This method supports both stand-alone and embedded style sheets, and additionally provides the ability to run a localized style sheet fragment against a particular source node.
