Sorry Ian, but I cannot share your point on this one. In HTML, the agent knows what goes where (since it's a presentation centric language) while the structure of an XML document doesn't help a browser in deciding the presentation structure that will make sense to a user. So, either the XML document should have a structure and 'data order' close to the desired XSL output, or an XSL is mandatory while CSS on it's own is useless. So, an agent should know what is what IMHO. Kindest regards, Manos
