If by "the tool for the new standards" you are referring to the new IE5.5 XML parser, the beta of the MS XML parser version 3.0 (which they are claiming is 100% compliant with XSLT/Xpath, though I've had problems with Xpath predicates) is available at http://msdn.microsoft.com/xml/general/msxmlprev.asp You also have to download the xmlinst.exe utility and readme file (linked there), and read the installation instructions in that readme very carefully and thoroughly (basically, after you install MSXML3 and xmlinst, you have to run from the command line 'xmlinst msxml3' - but don't quote me on that; if you don't run xmlinst, you're stuck with "side by side" support of XSLT and of the earlier Microsoft variant thereof) or you'll end up having to reinstall IE5.5 and having an all-around bad day. Mozilla/Netscape 6 will have a third-party plugin (MITRE), Transformiix, to do XSLT transforms; since Mozilla hasn't promised XSLT for this version (Moz 1/NS 6), don't count on much - see the readme at http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/extensions/transformiix/docs/readme.ht ml . Mozilla is also working on MathML. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/ Patrick Rourke
