In a purely theoretical standpoint, one would assume that XSLT addresses *just about* anything one would ever want to do with XML data, however, my frequent journey into new territory with using a draft in it's infancy has left some of my earlier pages unfunctionable as the draft has been changed. I am all for the inevitable inclusion of advanced programmatic abilities in XSL. Until that time happens, I believe that the <xsl:script> tag will allow people using xsl in the real world today an opportunity to use a stable language like Javascript for solutions without having to worry about the possibility of future drafts not supporting syntax or functions. Oh oh... looks like you've woken up the XSL jihad. Duane Nickull XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
