Whether the XSL sheet converts into XHTML+CSS or XFO on the client is irrelevent to the fact that the data started out as semantically rich, and perhaps arbitrary XML/RDF. In a perfect world, all browsers would support client side transformation. Jonathan Borden http://jabr.ne.mediaone.net XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
