Obviously you wouldn't send a whole SQL database to a client to do a query. You send the results. If the results consist of the minimum amount of data then the transform will *always* produce more output than input if you are transforming to html (transforming to text less). Add cacheing into the equation and client-side transformation will *always* produce less line traffic. > >> >IMHO, server side transformations rule. >> >> Are you selling hardware too? > >I agree that it might be different in an Intranet scenario. > Slightly but not much. >(Is hardware that expensive these days that I would get a profit form >preaching this??? >=:o) Possibly if you are running a data center. The cost of hardware is miniscule compared to the cost of support staff. Throw more hardware at it is just not an answer to badly designed applications as many people are aware. I won't even tell you what I think of preachers. Ciao Chris XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
