Thanks for taking a stab at this Nathaniel, I appreciate it. Let me rephrase the question a bit, however, since the table problem was really more of an example. What I'm really trying to get at is to know whether it is possible to manipulate the contents of a document within a pipeline AFTER it has been transformed into(x)html.
My design problem is that I have a webapp where to selectively control whether various html form fields are editable or greyed-out based on request parameters. What I'd ideally like to do is have my initial transformation apply the first stylesheet, producing a xhtml document, THEN apply a second stylesheet, which will look for form fields in the xhtml and set read/write permissions on them based on request parameters, and only then serialize the output. Is this possible? Any hints on how to approach this?
