I wasn't mentioning it to impose some new browser restrictions, it was just a
little FYI tidbit.

Also, if we determine that the user is using IE 5.5+, then the script can
simply echo the XML content with the <?xml-stylesheet ?> tag and have the
transformation done on the client instead of the server.

Of course, implementing the simple PHP output caching I suggested would
eliminate the benefit of that kind of user-agent filtering.  The above method
works best when your XML data and/or XSL stylesheet change constantly and,
therefore, any sort of intermediate caching isn't feasible.  It'd dramatically
reduce the processing time on the server to have as many clients as possible
perform the XSLT transformations on their end.


I'll see your $0.02 and raise you $0.02. =)
