RE: XML to SVG... more info (A working version)

	Yes Andrew,
	if I run the SVG file converte by Instant Saxon, it works. But...
when I want an XML file to be converted, I just have to indicate the path to
the XSL and the conversion is automatic. If I install the SVG viewr from
Adobe... doesn't it realice this conversion without a third tool?
	Also... why can't I see a SVG file that I have stored with .xml
format is SVG has XML format and is supposed that I can introduce child SVG
code in a parent XML file?
	Can I insert a SVG image in an HTML page dinamically? I mean without
make the conversion in the server, doing it in the client using javascript

	thanks, Libo
