Displaying a XML using XLS

Hi all,
I´m having trouble doing the following:
I have a aspx page without any html in it, and, in the Page_Load, I call a component that returns me a XML, that I have to display in the browser. I do that by using:
response.write(xml.innerxml) --> Works perfectly ( the browser shows me the xml
But, if I try to use a xls to transform it, like this
response.write("<?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='qp.xsl' ?>"
response.write(xml.innerxml) --> it doesn´t work. the xml is showed like an unformatted string
I don´t wanto to save the xml to disk and then load it, because I'll probably have lots of users doing this all the time, and the disk cost would be too high.
Any ideas or sugestions in how to solve this
Thanks in advance....

I've done this before, but rather than use XSL, I attached a CSS stylesheet
with all of the XML tags defined with desireable results.

I see.
But by doing that, how do you loop through the xml, display pictures where wanted, etc.
Is ther a way to do that in CSS?
Thanx!
 
You got me there. I suspect you'd still have to use an XML transform to
turn the image data in the XML into an HTML <IMG> tag.

Sorry I cant be more help.
