This dynamic XML & XSL is very powerful and I see it as the state of the art for server side XSLT rendering technologies, which both Cocoon & AxKit implement in other ways. If you have not set up Apache + mod_perl, the learning curve can be pretty steep, but can be simplified by using the mod_perl guide as your bible: http://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html Then learn how to use CPAN "perldoc CPAN" to install Apache::ASP & XML::XSLT > perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan> install Bundle::Apache::ASP cpan> install Bundle::XML I'm assuming you already have perl installed somewhere ;) This would be typical with your ordinary Linux distribution. If you are on NT/IIS, there seem to be some XML rendering objects accessible from your normal $Server->CreateObject() method, but this solution does not seem to be as well integrated as the other offerings I already mentioned.
