Hi Rene (and Lee)

Yes

it into your HTML?

And what would that current-date-function look like? I really have no idea (as 
to syntax, use,...)!

I'm using XMLSpy and MSXML3.
I had a look at your example code but i don't know

1. where to put in my XSL
2. how to adapt it to so I get the current date in the output HTML

As to your reply, Lee:

Same problem: how do I use a param to actually get that date?
I'd appreciate any help on this (though i didn't think it would be this 
complicated to get it done).

Thanks everyone,

Armin
