Honestly I haven't done the IE implementation, but I do have a nice article around somewhere that provides an implementation of some of the main functionality cross-browser, so I pretty much KNOW it can be done. I expect that XSLT on IE will be the main sticky point. Mainly I haven't made progress on it because Mr Gates keeps refusing to send me the source to his Linux IE6 port so I can run it on Mandrake 9.x........
