Hi Scott & Charles - Thank you! Scott - I suspect you are right that I won't be able to acess the window object during the time of XSL processing. My kludge has been to use HTTPRequest to load the xml document, create/set attributes that act as command line parameters, perfom the transformation, and then attach the result to a <div>. The top level XSL looks like: <xsl:template match="/"> <!-- Get Input Variables --> <xsl:variable name="DashboardMode"><xsl:value-of select="//*/@templateMode"/></xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="SelectedManager"><xsl:value-of select="//*/@selectedManager"/></xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="SelectedService"><xsl:value-of select="//*/@selectedService"/></xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="SelectedFunction"><xsl:value-of select="//*/@selectedFunction"/></xsl:variable> <!-- Top Level 'Select Case' --> <xsl:choose> <!-- Service Manager Dashboard --> <xsl:when test="$DashboardMode='Manager'"> <xsl:call-template name="ManagerDashboard" > <xsl:with-param name="manager"><xsl:value-of select="$SelectedManager"/></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="function"><xsl:value-of select="$SelectedFunction"/></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <!-- Service Dashboard --> <xsl:when test="$DashboardMode='Service'"> <xsl:call-template name="ServiceDashboard" > <xsl:with-param name="service"><xsl:value-of select="$SelectedService"/></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="function"><xsl:value-of select="$SelectedFunction"/></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:apply-templates mode="Error" select="/"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> It's pretty ugly (and needs to be refactored), but it works! The challange to this app was to keep the depolyment simple (i.e., minimize the number of files, this has a minimum of three: html, xml, and xsl) and reasonably self contained. My customer develops a niche industry application and installation of xml processing engines would have been frowned upon. Thanks all for your help. Regards, April
