Hi James,
If you want to let XML show up in the browser (and additionally add syntax
coloring), below is a stylesheet written originally by Jason Patterson. I
still use it without any modifications. The original link to it was:

Try it out and you'll see what I mean :-)
HTH,

Subject: [xsl] Transforming XML to XML
I have a very simple question about transforming XML to XML. I have been
using XSLT to transform XML to XHTML and displaying the result in Internet
Explorer. I would like to do the same but with XML displayed in the
browser. A search of the archives has not provided a satisfactory solution.
Here is a simplified XML file, testdata.xml:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="renewal.xsl"?> <Data>
<car>Chevy</car>
<car>Dodge</car>
<car>Ford</car>
</Data>
Here is a copy of my XSL file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="Data"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
From what I have read and from some of the examples I have seen, I would
expect this to return an XML file exactly like the original document
(testdata.xml). Instead it is displaying a string consisting of the text
from the <car> elements, without the XML tags: ChevyDodgeFord. What am I
overlooking?
