The BIDXML format is used to transfer XML documents to be signed as both XML and XSL in one file between BankID Server (both Java and C) and the Web-client.
Its format is as follows:

<BankIDXML>
	<BIDXML>xmlDocument</BIDXML><BIDXSL>xslDocument</BIDXSL>
</BankIDXML>

The XML structure is then signed as plain text. The signXML method does NOT validate thexml data (well-formedness).

Parameter	Type	Description
xmlDocument	String	The xml data to sign.
xslDocument	String	The xsl data to sign.

Table 21 – BIDXML parameter description

Please note that both the Client proxy and the Web-client treat BIDXML documents as ISO-Latin-1 and XML-documents originally using other encodings may lead to problems with producing a proper HTML representation. This means that BankID Server and Client proxy will disregard the preamble of the document header:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>

Also note that experience have shown that the corresponding XSL-file must have a header that specifies the output method and output encoding as shown below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" encoding="ISO-8859-1" doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd" doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" indent="yes" />
