I see.

I see. I assume this happens server side. Could you give me a URL?

I expected this, that's why I wanted to test in IE5 and Gecko.

So I can use CSS to display XML? Wew, didn't know this. Thanks. Do I have
to do anything special, or just, say

name {font: 14px arial;}
address {font-weight: 600;}

etc.

>Let us know if you need more information!

Well, I just got the order to learn XML, so I need a lot of info. But I'll
keep on reading this list, it'll help me to get some key concepts. Is there
a good glossary that explains all terms and stuff that regularly pass on
this list? (XT, HFC or something, etc.)?

Thanks for the reactions,
