Thanks for responding and sorry for the vagueness of my question.  When I
say -send a link- I mean that we all have Personal Web Server loaded.
Instead of sending documents to each other we send links (provided the
folder is web shared), 
ex. \\mycomp666\PT\XML\Incoming\RE00-00092-115148-EDI.xml

Others were able to see documents with IE using this intranet link but since
I've changed from:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"> to
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> 

others cannot see the data...only the table structures and formatting (XSL
stuff).  No error is given.  The data is visible when 'View Source' is used
so I know that they are reaching my XML document, and since the formatting
is apparent the XSL link must be viable.

The encoding='ISO8859-1'.  I have not tried to send them the actual document
but will try that today.  

Joel

"send a link to anyone else"

What kind of link are you sending them?
HTTP? Or a file on your network?

It might be a red herring, but is there a chance their browser is thinking 
that they're looking at HTML instead of XML?

If this is HTTP, what is the mime-type of your document?

If you just give them the document, instead of this "sending a link" 
business, can they then view it properly?
