Hm, I don't know exactly where this discussion started, I seem to have
missed the start of it. I don't know anything about XSL, but I do know
I've successfully used XML Document with a set of DTML Methods (that get
acquired by XML elements) to render an XML document to HTML. Of course
there aren't any stylesheets then, but it's not a hard to use system,
and the DTML methods are easy to adapt.
