Hi Kiera,

Kiera said:
	Is there anyway of creating  a dropdown html menu using XSL (Option,
Value). The Menu information will be stored
in the XML document calling this XSL stylesheet ?

	Can Javascript in XSL access the html code it contains ?


	Can JavaScript in XSL access the DOM object for the XML document
that calls it ?

Didier replies:
Yes you can if you create an XSLT style sheet that will transform the XML
document into HTML and this latter contains a script. You can use the XML
elements as data source for your script and have the script use the DOM. Be
cautious however since Netscape and Microsoft have different APIs.

Cheers
