I'm sorry folks. I've been cramming my brain with xsl
and xml for a week now and I'm discovering that it is
a BIG topic. I have converted an Excel Workbook with
many worksheets into an xml file. I created an xsl
file to display a menu of worksheet names with the
goal of allowing the user to click on the worksheet
name and navigate directly to that worsheet in a
seperate frame. Our customer will be using many
different browsers, so at the very least I have to
make this xml display on the more popular browsers. I
tried to run the code from Netscape and found that it
would not display correctly. I don't mind doing the
leg work but I'm finding that there is so much
information out there that I don't know which
techniques I need to study.
Thank you so much for your time and assistance,
Patricia

XHTML? Does anybody have any ideas?
It's not a question of hardware, it's a question of
software.
The Macintosh doesn't display XML (or XHTML, or
HTML). An application
running on the Macintosh may be able to display any
or all of these
file types.
So, what software is your Macintosh user using to
look at your
webpage? It's no different from PC users - if they
are using
3 year old browsers they won't be able to make sense
of XML
on the web. If they are using newer software they
might be able
to view what you have now.
