Subject: Re: [xsl] xslt on server-side vs. client-side From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2001 16:24:05 GMT |
The thread so far has mainly assumed that only the transformed version is needed, and so it's just a matter of which end the transform happens, but often it is useful to have the original XMl source. If the source is MathMl (being an example close to my heart) which will render on the client using a transform, or be pushed from that client to say a comoputer algebra system and evaluated, then sending the client XML is a lot more useful than sending some transformed version which might just be html + images. If the browser cab't handle the XML then sending it some down translated version might be the best you can do but you the client is getting second hand material in that case. In some situations of course that's what you want to happen. I the source is your entire company database, and the transform is "42" then sending 42 might be preferable.
