Nice idea - how do you get access to the querystring parameter in the XSL file?? - USe the ASP Request Object? and use this in the XSL file? Also i would probably use something like strValue = oXMLDOMNode.transformNode(stylesheet & "?locale=brazil&language=port") Thanks Join Association of Internet Professionals - http://www.citix.com/aip Steven Livingstone President, AIP Scotland. ceo@xxxxxxxxx http://www.citix.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Britt, James [SMTP:james.britt@xxxxxxx] > Sent: 03 June 1999 01:15 > To: 'xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' > Subject: RE: XML/XSL and ASP/IIS > > Actually, under IIS (and I suspect other servers as well) you *can* pass > parameters to an XSL file.
