RE: [xsl] Embedding XSL in JavaScript

John,

I've taken 5 and built a (cheesy) example to do what you're talking about.
This example using selectSingleNode directly against the source without a
stylesheet.

http://home.earthlink.net/~xsllist/getcust.htm
http://home.earthlink.net/~xsllist/customer.xml

Use 'John Doe' as a search criteria as I haven't added case-insensitivity or
error-handling.  All disclaimers about quality of hastily-prepared examples
apply!
