Mike, I do know that XSLT is Turing complete and you can check if you wish through a prior post [1] (in French) on XMLfr. This sentence was a quote that doesn't express my own position --if I was quoting only stuff with which I agree, my articles would be shorter and people would find them subjective ;=) . I had been as far as I wish to allow myself to go in a story that isn't labelled as a "comment" by qualifying the statement of "strong sentiments". We use to think that people are able to do their own judgement and "our aim is to distill essential news, opinions, tips and issues concerning XML development" rather than to tell people what we think they should think. We have also recently added a feature allowing our readers to post their comments on line and you are welcome to say what you think about this statement ;=) . Eric BTW, this story had been peer-reviewed.
