Hi Manos,



Decision was made before I was involved.  I would guess that one reason to 
limit to a single browser was to minimize maintenance and 
testing.  Production version has to be rock solid.  IE over Mozilla choice 
probably due to existing installed base.  I use Mozilla myself and love it 
(though a later post on this topic says its XSLT support is buggy).

Hi Jacob,

In a project I'm involved with, we have XML data which we transform to

I dont see why you want to limit folks to IE6. Mozilla based browsers 
handle XML+XSLT just fine. Just send your XML with a style Processing 
Instruction to the browser. It will work equally well for both browsers. 
And if you want to control transformations from the client using 
scripting, that can be done as well.



Hope this helps.
