dotnet xml: I am trying to use the document function inside an ASP.Net control,
specifically a SharePoint Web Part. For whatever reason, the function
always seems to return an empty node set. I am providing a resolver to both
the Load method and the transform but it doesn't seem to matter. I then
derived my own resolver from XmlUrlResolver and placed Debug.WriteLine calls
inside the constructor, GetEntity() and ResolveUri(). When viewing the
debug information printed, I only see the call to the constructor. It seems
the XslTransform class is not even trying to use the resolver. This dll has
a configured security of FullTrust. This is confirmed because I use the
AddExtensionObject method of XsltArgumentList which requires FullTrust. I
have demonstrated the document function working in a plain windows
application. Is there some other attributes I need to be setting up or some
other security needs to make XslTransform use my document() calls?

Thanks,

Stan

Thanks for reading my babble but it turns out the problem was largely caused
by lack of sleep. :) The actual line calling to the Debug.WriteLine in
ResolveUri of my custom resolver was generating an exception as a result of
(you guessed it)... a typo. In addition I made the incorrect assumption
that the passed baseUri would be non-null. It's interesting to note that
exceptions raised in the resolver do not propogate out through the Transform
method, which led me to believe everything was ok there.

Show us some code. Basically it should work, so chances are it's some
silly typo somewhere.
