Just as CSS makes HTML look more attractive, XSLT style sheets extend the value of XML data. When released in 1998, Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 included an implementation of Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) in their Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML). This version of XSL was based on a working draft that has been finalized since. Although the XSLT (XSL Transformations) specification has now been finalized, some installed copies of the MSXML parser do not support the most current XSLT specification. If one of your XSLT operations does not work, you may need to upgrade your MSXML to 3.0, the most current version. Also, when creating an XML object, you should use the following JavaScript line:

var xmldoc=new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0");
