Can this be browser specific? As David points out you can use client side JavaScript to load both the XML and the XSLT. The JavaScript can in turn be parametrized. You can pick up Ajax libraries such as Dojo that will hide most of the cross browser issues for you, but given that XML + XSLT does not work on all browsers your limited from the word go... You could also use a separate server side XSLT to modify the XML to include the appropriate XSLT, but unless the XSLT has some specific reasonfor running on the client I can't see why you wouldn't run everything server side at that point. -- Peter Hunsberger
