XSLT.

That's cool.

My initial approach was, as I said efore, an HTML with frames, which
loads
a DOM,
that passes parameters to an XSLT, which is run and fills the HTML
fields.

This is fine -- but going down this road, you are in advance (considerably
in advance!) of where web standards have specified behaviors on clients.
There are simply no vendor-neutral specifications for loading an HTML
document with a DOM, invoking an XSLT process (with or without
parameters),
and "fill[ing] the HTML fields".

You could check out Sarissa:

http://sarissa.sourceforge.net/

From the overview:

" Sarissa is a JavaScript meta-API. It bridges the gap of DOM XML extentions
between Internet Explorer and Mozilla (or Moz-based) browsers. It is an
effort to provide a common interface for those extentions, bringing them
closer to eachother. It was originally created to protect my sanity ;-)"

Best,
-Rob
