RE: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns...
Hey Evan... do you think he is ever going to be ready to tell that to his

A lot still has to change in the browser world for me to rely on a browser
to transform XML. Besides, that often requires to transfer more data.

IMHO, server side transformations rule.


Have fun,
Paulo Gaspar
