XML Support

XML Support Through the CIE

Pulse Connect Secure supports Web applications that use DTDs, XML schemas, and XML islands within an HTML file. When creating XML content, however, please note the following guidelines:

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support referencing style sheets or DTDs on a separate server.

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support using the document call.

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support using the CSS extension for the Microsoft alpha image loader when rewriting XSLT style sheets. However, you can use the alpha image loader if you do not invoke XSLT expressions. For example, the CIE does not support the STYLE portion of the following code:

<!-- This DIV is the target container for the filter. -->

<DIV ID="oDiv" STYLE="position:relative; width:200px; color:gold; filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader( src='/workshop/graphics/earglobe.gif');" >

The World

</DIV>

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support XSL style sheets that use Microsoft WD-XSL and that use XSL expressions to construct hyperlinks. Pulse Connect Secure delivers your page correctly, however, provided all hyperlinks within the page do not use XSL expressions.

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support passing the parameters of ActiveX or Applet objects using XSLT expressions. If you do not use HTML hyperlinks, however, the objects function properly.

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support manipulating DTD, Xlink, XForm, and XInclude using XSLT expressions. If you do not use XSLT expressions when creating these, however, the page functions properly through Pulse Connect Secure.

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support rewriting DTDs inside an HTML file.

•Pulse Connect Secure does not support using XSLT expressions to generate HTML hyperlinks inside JavaScript or VBScript statements. As long as XSLT expression is not used to generate a hyper link inside javascript or VBScript, the page functions properly.
