Hi, In IE6 it is possible to see the transformation-result. I do something like this; - write a html file - write a function which loads the xml and xsl, creates the dom and does the transformation - call this function from the body tag somehting like this: <htm> <head> <script type=text/javascript> function intialize(){ do everything you need here } </script> </head> <body onLoad="initialize()"> </body> </html> Done in this way the source/view option shows the serialized output-file. I hope this helps you. Agnes ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas B.
