Because it's the _name_ of the language implemented. Read http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl as "FORTRAN" and http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform as "Java" they are "just" names it doesn't not matter if anything is retrievable at that address, but if you give a fortran program to a java system, it won't work, it won't work even if you changed a comment at the top that said "this is fortran" to say "this is java". To an xslt system anything in the namespace http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform is an xslt instruction. Anything in any other namespace is just literal result elements that are copied to the output. so for both IE5 and XSLT, <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="uri:xsl"> that element is npt the start of a stylesheet, it is just some unknown element in some unknown namespace. If you go <xsl:stylesheet xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> then to an XSL system that is the start of a stylesheet, but to IE it is again just some unknown element. > Yes, this is written for the Microsoft dialect, but there is no other choice > if you do not have access to a server that supports XML. If your server does not support XML (whatever that means) you wouldn't be able to read the XML files at all, neither the source nor stylesheet. on any platform that can run the microsoft dialect (server or client side) then you can install msxml3 and use xslt. If you really have to use the microsoft version for some strange reason you can't expect much help from this list. It's like asking java questions on a C list. Someone may give a bit of help the first time, but basically you are asking in the wrong place.
