Re: [xsl] Passing XML data to HTML form

You do not need a cgi server, simply a web server which allows the .cgi
extension. This is easy to set up in apache and i presume other web servers.
A cgi can be written in most programming languages the most common on the
web being PHP and Perl.

In answer to your question: i dont think so to my knowledge, at least
without some external extensions. There is a crude way using JavaScript
variables but i wouldn't recommend it .
