Hi James,

> will that solution work in my CGI-BIN?

While your best bet would have been AxKit, it is a mod_perl application 
and I am not sure how easy it is to make it work with CGI. However, 
AxKit is built on top of a whole bunch of smaller-task XML processing 
packages that you should be able to use in a CGI context. You should 
take a look at both XML::LibXML and XML::LibXSLT from Matt Sergeant, 
working as Perl interfaces for Daniel Veillard's excellent libxml2 and 
libxslt2 libraries. A few links:

XML::LibXML -

XML::LibXSLT - 
http://search.cpan.org/author/MSERGEANT/XML-LibXSLT-1.52/LibXSLT.pm
libxml2 and libxslt2 - http://xmlsoft.org/

You should be able to do that with no problem with all the above 
recommendations. There are of course other alternatives but these are 
my personal favorites and it works.
