How do you set the xsl template mode using Javascript if NOT using IE?

[pmorey]

I'm trying to port some IE code to run on Mozilla and other DOM-compatible browsers. This code does an XSL transformation using a stylesheet that makes extensive use of the mode attribute (<xsl:template mode=&quot;foo&quot;>) to do the transformation. In IE, you can set the mode like this:

xsltProc.setStartMode(&quot;foo&quot;

But I can't find a way to do this in Mozilla. I tried this:

xsltProc.setParameter(null, &quot;mode&quot;, &quot;foo&quot;

but it didn't work. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help!

Yes but in IE xsltProc is an instance of the MSXML.Document ActiveX Control. Does the Mozilla script engine support ActiveX controls?

Nope, Mozilla doesn't support ActiveX. It has its own set of JS objects for processing XML. In Mozilla, xsltProc is an instance of XSLTProcessor.
