Re: [xsl] Unable to get Firefox to apply XSL

That would be great, but unfortunately it's far beyond my capabilities -- I
wouldn't even know where to start to set up something like that :(  But maybe
I can teach myself between now and next time we teach the class!

One way forward for this sort of thing is to pull the infrastructure onto your
end. Setup a web form where they can upload the file (or the stylesheet, or
both, Ibm not sure which bit the students are working on), transform it form
them, and send back the results.

For a few students with small files, itbs not an objectively large task to
setup a server that can do small transformations, but of course it depends a
little bit on what infrastructure you have available.

Ibve seen some very successful tutorials that were entirely bcloud
basedb like this. It doesnbt work for everything, but it does work for
some things and it might possibly work for you here.

Good luck!
