I have a stylesheet that generates XHMTL like:
<a href="../aip/635.htm">
<img src="../cr/small/635.jpg" alt="stamp image"/>
</a>

Right now, clicking on the 635.jpg images opens the 635.htm page.

The difficulty is that in the final project, the aip/n.htm files would number more than 3000 if each were constructed individually. Those pages are quite simple and contain only an image and a few lines of text. What I am looking for is a way to launch an XSLT style sheet that would build the page within the browser on demand.

My idea is that clicking on the small/635.jpg image on my XHTML page would launch a stylesheet to build the 636.htm page. I need some hints on how to get started, where to look, or to know that this is not a good idea.

You need to write some Javascript that responds to the onclick event and launches an XSLT transformation. You can't do this using the <?xml-stylesheet?> approach.
