Dear Reader,

Welcome to another issue of XML.com.

This week Lindsey Simon describes XSLDataGrid, an approach to dynamic
display of tabular data using XSLT and Ajax. It's about time someone
started weaving class XML techniques, like XSLT, into Web 2.0 fabrics. I'm
excited to see XSLT and Ajax combined together, especially in a datagrid
widget. Having usable datagrid widgets makes web interfaces even more
useful, particularly when dealing with large, tabular data sources.

The XSLDataGrid: XSLT Rocks Ajax
