Sarissa works well for me, but i'm testing my apps in IE and FF
only... And i believe the technology they now call AJAX (assyncronous
javascript and xml, but that includes xslt and other technologies
alltogheter) have a great future. Look at Google that is using that in
their new products (and i believe that google is the greates "menace"
to microsoft these days).

I did it. ;-)
But it seems that Konqueror and Safari (KHTML based) are not supported
at all (XPath, for example)...
As long as there is a market for HTML browsers, there will ipso facto be a
market for browsers that do not support XML/XSLT client-side.
I agree with what Charles said about this, with a slight change in
emphasis. It isn't that server-side transforms are in themselves better;
rather, that the browsers and clients generally are still a moving target
(indeed, when you include non-HTML consumers they're all over the place),
and there will remain a number of ways to reach them.
Five or eight years ago the situation was similarly unsettled with HTML
itself. Now HTML is more stable and better understood, we have better
support for the HTML DOM, CSS is more dependable and widespread, etc. (Note
this isn't exactly a promise that you'll be able to do what you want if you
only wait -- the next five years could bring us more fragmentation not
consolidation. There's no eternal law that says HTML/DOM/CSS, or even some
kind of platform for XML/XSLT, is the be-all/end-all of standards on the
client. I'm very glad to see the standards progressing as well as they are;
but we've seen killer apps out of the blue before....)
Cheers,
Wendell
