An xsl is not the schema (while an xsd file is). The xsl is a style sheet, that 
as you mention allows for a browser to pretty-print the xml. To use an xsl 
style sheet, include a line like the following at the top (after the <?xml 
version="..."?> tag) of the xml file:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="your_xsl_file_here.xsl"?>

For example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="simple.xsl"?>
<breakfast_menu>
  <food>
    <name>Belgian Waffles</name>
    <price>$5.95</price>
    <description>
       two of our famous Belgian Waffles
    </description>
    <calories>650</calories>
  </food>
</breakfast_menu>

And the corresponding xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<html xsl:version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; 
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
  <body style="font-family:Arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;
        background-color:#EEEEEE">
    <xsl:for-each select="breakfast_menu/food">
      <div style="background-color:teal;color:white;padding:4px">
        <span style="font-weight:bold;color:white">
        <xsl:value-of select="name"/></span>
        - <xsl:value-of select="price"/>
      </div>
      <div style="margin-left:20px;margin-bottom:1em;font-size:10pt">
        <xsl:value-of select="description"/>
        <span style="font-style:italic">
          (<xsl:value-of select="calories"/> calories per serving)
        </span>
      </div>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </body>
</html>

I previously posted a question re converting a small stand-a-lone dbf
to xml file, using a schema (xsl file) supplied by my client.

Creating an xml file is simple
What I can't get my head around is to use the schema "thingee" to ALSO
produce the xml file in a format so that when you double click on it,
it looks all neatly formatted.
almost like a (frx) report from a color printer.

Is there someone here who is prepared to assist me conclude this process.
I am willing to PAY for the help you provide.

Regards
Sytze
