split buffer xsl
Now that's a creative solution.

I'm going to have to ponder on that one, as it's caught me sort of
sideways.

I know that MS ASP Remote Scripting uses a Java proxy to buffer data
between the client document and the server, so I suppose there's no reason
why such a proxy shouldn't be an XSL parser recieving XML.

Do you know is anybody working on such an implimentation?

Regards
     Guy.

Yes. In fact, there's a second interesting alternative - transfer the XML
to
the client, and convert it to there, then give it to the browser. Given the
existing 100% Java XSL processors, this can be done by an applet inside the
browser. If the XML is much smaller then the generated HTML, this trades
CPU
cycles on the client for bandwidth - a reasonable tradeoff these days.
