THe others simply don't display XML Data Islands are proprietary Microsoft technology, and will only work in IE. IE does not support XLink. IE does not seem to support XHTML. I would be surprised if XSLT transformation in the XML data island would give you what you want. My suggestion to you would be to have your page in HTML, and use the "XMLHttpRequest" object to get and post XML data between the server and client without reloading the page. You need to do more work compared to the data island approach (you will actually need to get the data, and create table cells and content yourself), but at least it would work in IE and Mozilla based products, including Netscape 7.0. There are links to examples etc. from here: http://www.mozilla.org/xmlextras/ -- Heikki Toivonen
