The CGI is a plain Perl CGI script called with something that looks like: http://../cgi-bin/icweb?cmd=getmeaningnotation&stylesheet=notationset.xsl¬ation=96C and in the Perl it does a 'system' call with a command line like: "icxml -c $iccommand -n \"$document\" | transfrmx -i /dev/stdin -s $xslfile"; And the XML server (icxml) is one that I wrote producing XML chunks on the fly for our specific needs (so it isn't XML _files_ that are being served, the XML is produced dynamically). Super-simple solution but it works well, and is fast enough. If I were a consultant it wouldn't be nearly fancy and complex and opaque enough to enable me to charge lots of money for it though... ;-) Cheers Etienne Posthumus - http://www.cs.uu.nl/staff/etienne.html - ------------------------------------------------ Institute for Information and Computing Sciences ------------------------------------------------ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
