Yes, you could do that. I have a hack in the forthcoming OReilly book "XML Hacks" that shows a simple way to randomize with xslt. Basically, insert a string of random numbers into a node in the style sheet and index into it to get the random numbers. Or you could pass in a different random string as a global parameter each time you run the stylesheet. Cheers, Tom P
