Render XML data island to HTML?

I have an XML data island in my aspx web page. The XML includes a link
(processing instruction) to an XSL stylesheet. Is there any way on this page
to view the HTML, that results from the xsl transformation, as the contents
of, say, a div? I know I can do it if I display only the XML in IE, but I
don't know if I can do it as a fragment of an existing HTML page.

TIA

Yes you can. It will require some Javascript.
I don't have time to hack out a full example for you this morning as I'm off
for my Sat bike ride, but, take a look
at the example code from Chapter 7 of Glasshaus Practical XML For The Web.

In this chapter I demonstrate how to write this sort of stuff in a manner
that will work across both IE and the Netscape derriviatives.

Thanks.....
I describe it in some detail in the book, but basically I make the
NS/Mozilla DOM behave like the IE DOM by extending the object using the slot
based language features of Javascript.

I have a table which is bound to an Internet Explorer XML data island. I'm using ASP.NET's client-side validators for an input field in the table. The problem is that if the input fields are in a table that is bound to the island (such that the rows are dynamically generated by IE from the XML data island), the validators do not work. If the table is not bound, the validators do work, but then I don't have the table iterating through...

When the modifications were complete, I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
