Apparently this is not a task that would be very easy to do in XSL, depending on the level of detail you want in the result. It would be no fun at all to implement a longest common string algorithm in XSL 1.0. So, it seems most solutions use other tools to prepare something which could then be turned into a visual representation in a way you like. I am currently evaluating those options to handle the diff task: * http://nwalsh.com/java/diffmk/ [not under development] * http://xmlunit.sourceforge.net/ [active development] * http://www.xmldifftool.com/ [author says a new version is under development] - Michael -- _______________________________________________________________ Michael M|ller-Hillebrand: Dokumentations-Technologie Adobe Certified Expert, FrameMaker Lvsungen und Training, FrameScript, XML/XSL, Unicode Blog: http://cap-studio.de/ - Tel. +49 (9131) 28747
