You *can* use multiple xsl-stylesheet processing instructions in your XML page to associated multiple stylesheets with the same XML, but no application that I know of (aside from Chris Bayes' IE extension) will actually use that. That means you have three main choices: 1. Use a script of some kind, server-side or client-side, or a batch file if you're doing a batch transform, to transform the XML with the different stylesheets. 2. Have a controlling stylesheet that imports the different views, have the templates in the different view stylesheets use different modes, and then use a parameter to choose which mode to use, and therefore which view to get. 3. Have a stylesheet that generates a stylesheet that gives the relevant view, again based on a parameter. If you want more details about any of these, ask away.
