empty output with xsl

hi,

i've been trying to work with xml/xsl for about a day now, and i'm already stuck. The problem is i know too little to be able to say where it goes wrong.

This is what i'm trying to do: i send a request to a server, and they send xml back to me. From this xml i need to fish things out for later to use in the database. But at this point, i can't get far enough to get anything out of the xml i get back.

I work with ColdFusion, and i use the XMlDom object. This is what the code looks like:

<!--- read the xml document --->
      <cffile action="READ" file="d:\source\testptt\ptt\SayHello.xml" variable="xmlFile">
     
<cfscript>
//send request
     
           xmlhttp = CreateObject ("COM","Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
    xmlhttp.Open ("POST", "https://www.multimall.nl/servlet/ecsxmlagent", false);
    xmlhttp.Send (xmlFile);
         
     </cfscript>

     <!--- load the xsl document --->
   <cffile action="READ" file="d:\source\testptt\ptt\SayHello.xsl" variable="xslFile">

     <cfscript>
          xmlDoc = CreateObject ("COM", "Microsoft.XMLDom");
          xslDoc = CreateObject ("COM", "Microsoft.XMLDom");
         
          xmlDoc.async = false;    
          xslDoc.async = false;    
         
          xmlDoc.validateOnParse = false;    
          xslDoc.validateOnParse = false;    
         
          xmlDoc.load (xmlFile);
          xslDoc.loadXML (xslFile);
                             
          result = xmlDoc.transformNode (xslDoc);
                   
     </cfscript>

The xml i get back looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SayHelloA xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"
               xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://cashdesk.e-commerceservices.nl/schema/v1.0/SayHello.xsd">
     <SayHello>
          <OUTPUT>zsanett! The XML interface works!</OUTPUT>
     </SayHello>
</SayHelloA>

If i just display xmlhttp.responseText, i do see this xml correctly.


My xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" >
<xsl:template match="/" >
<TABLE STYLE="border:1px solid black" >
     <TR STYLE="font-size:12pt; font-family:Verdana; font-weight:bold; text-decoration:underline" >
<TD STYLE="background-color:lightgrey" >This</TD>
</TR>
<TR STYLE="font-family:Verdana; font-size:12pt; padding:0px 6px" >
<TD>
<xsl:value-of select="OUTPUT" />
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I've tried it with two local files, (i've copied the xml i get back from the server), but with the same result. The actual data get lost somewhere on the way.

Do you have any idea where? I should think in my xsl, but why?

thanks,
