You can, if you wish place an object in your page so that people will be offered an automatic cab install of msxml3 if you wish (although that doesn't do a replace mode install, so you have to use scripting to access the new parser) Otherwise forget about msxml3/replacemode which was never really a supported install mechanism for production machines, just view XSLT functionality as an IE6 feature. As such you could treat it like the new features in IE5, initially treat with care and warn potential readers they nead the latest and greatest version. (See recent thread for discussion of how long "initially" is in this context) This is no worse (in fact its better) than all those pages out there that are full of microsoft specific code unreadable on any browser that conforms to any known spec. At least if you have an XSLT styled XML file someone using a non XSLT enabled browser can grab the files and run the stylesheet on the command line, if they're interested. It isn't just proprietary undocumented markup that might mean anything at all. But having said that, what we do currently is serve html:-) David _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by Star Internet delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.
