Example

var xslt = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XSLTemplate.5.0");
var xslDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.5.0");
var xslProc;
xslDoc.async = false;
xslDoc.load("sample.xsl");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   xslt.stylesheet = xslDoc;
   var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.5.0");
   xmlDoc.async = false;
   xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
   if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) {
      var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
      alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);
   } else {
      xslProc = xslt.createProcessor();
      xslProc.input = xmlDoc;
      xslProc.addParameter("param1", "Hello");
      xslProc.transform();
      alert(xslProc.output);
      xslProc.reset();
      alert(xslProc.output);

[C/C++]

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT reset();

Remarks

It does not reset any other properties, such as stylesheet or startMode.

The reset method will cause any internally buffered output to be thrown away (that is, it aborts the asynchronous transformation). Calling reset results in the readyState value going from READYSTATE_INTERACTIVE back to READYSTATE_LOADED.

A re-entrant call to reset from inside the scope of a call to transform results in that transform call finishing as soon as it can, returning E_FAIL with the error message "User aborted transform."
