MMXSLT.launchXMLSourceDialog()
Availability
Dreamweaver 8.
Description
This function prompts the user to specify the XML source document that is associated with
the current XSLT document. The user can choose either a local or remote reference to an
XML document.
Arguments
{xsltfileURI, bUseTempForRemote, bAddSchemaReference}
■ The xsltfileURI argument is optional. It is a string that is the local file URI that points
to the location of the XSL file. If this argument is omitted, it defaults to the current open
document.
■ The bUseTempForRemote argument, which is optional, is a Boolean value: true returns a
reference to the temporary XML file (for example,
file:///C:/Documents and
Settings/username/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/Content.IE5/
GTSLQ9KZ/rss[1].xml
) that is downloaded when the original XML file is remote (for
example,
http://myHost/rssfeed.xml) ; false returns an absolute reference.
■ The bAddSchemaReference argument is optional. It adds a reference in the current
document that points to the XML source URI that is specified in the XML source dialog
box. If this argument is omitted, it defaults to the current open document.
Returns
A string that contains the reference to the XML source document associated with the current
XSLT document. If the XML source reference is a remote reference, the function returns the
downloaded filepath to the temporary location.
