Supremely imaginative try tho!
It's an out-there concept. " I can't do what I want in this language,
I'll just shift into this one for a bit... " Imagine if you could!
Because Alex, most xsl-list denizens hold that because of the 4%
variation in specs (something like the difference between English
English and 'Merican), old MSXML is a COMPLETELY different language.
... to stop floggong that horse, an up-to-date processor IS an option.
How to upgrade whatever version of IE you're using to transform is
documented a dozen times in this list.
If you're being locked up without your rights down South in NTsville,
get a nearby developer do do it for you.
Otherwise, you should be aware that the old version is released as
'unsupported software' from MS, - and _DEFINATELY_ unsupported by this
group.
Everyone's still covering their ass by calling stuff 'beta's and
pre-releases. Don't make it harder on yourself than it already is.
