XSLT

Used XSLT for the first time at work today. Related to our accessibility project, looking at ways our Flash developers can keep using their XML data but for an accessible alternative HTML version to be generated from the same sources using ASP. Wasn't trying anything more sophisticated than looping through DB results but was quite pleased that getting HTML/text/WML versions generated with same XML but different XSL files proved pretty straightforward, just need to remember to output the right MIME type in the ASP. I found the articles on the Top XML useful. How many acronyms is that now? 9:51:39 PM

"I presume you're not Livingstone"

Another entry in the history books for intrepid Scot explorers. Dave Mill was hoping to reach the North Pole on a solo trek. Unfortunately he found himself caught on an ice flow...a melting one. Fortunately he was able to phone (like to see the reverse charges for that bill!) and e-mail for a plane to airlift him to safety. Cool use of technology?
