If you reverse the method and include your data in the xsl:stylesheet
(example below) it will work with all browsers. Remarks:
- tested with IE 6, Firefox 3.5, Opera 9.6.
- the PI would work also with an empty href (exept IE)
- the file embedd-test3.xsl was served with application/xml
Regards,
Manfred Staudinger
