I recently noticed that Altova, the makers of XML Spy, have released their XSLT parser as a free stand-alone component to be used in application development. Interesting and commendable, but it's important to note that this is free-as-in-beer, not as in speech. It is very much closed source. I could see using this to test the relative conformance or performance of different engines, but for actual production use I feel much safer with a genuine free-as-in-speech parser. I've managed to find bugs in every single XML parser and XSLT transformer I've ever used, and this has led me to a great appreciation for software that enables me to fix the bug and/or to report it with some hope it will be fixed in the future. -- o;?Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx XML in a Nutshell 3rd Edition Just Published! http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/xian3/ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0596007647/cafeaulaitA/ref=nosim
