RE: [xsl] Can one Use JavaScript to update XSL:Variables

[dave frette <gohabitat@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Tom for the code and some helpful hints.

But what about these: 
        cache = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XSLTemplate.4.0");
        var proc = cache.createProcessor();
        ...
        proc.transform();

What is the Netscape equivalent?

- Dave
