    Using browser XSLT transformations

    I'm not sure if this is the right group for this question. It seems to
    span a few topics.

    I have a PHP page that generates XML output. I want to push this output
    through a stylesheet transformation and display this to the user. I
    know the transformation is sound because if I save the output as a .xml
    file it renders fine. However, the PHP page is displayed as raw text
    without even line breaks. I suspect that because the extension for the
    page is .php the browser does not know to treat it as XML and apply the
    stylesheet. Is it possible to force the browser to do this?

    Once I have this working, I would then like to embed the XML into a
    larger page generated by PHP. Will the browser be able to only
    stylesheet-process the XML portion of the page and leave the rest
    literal?

    Any general suggestions on how to embed stylesheet-transformed XML into
    a web page? I know I can use the XML XSLT routines to hand-crank the
    transformation, but leaving the XML as it is and getting the browser to
    transform seems a lot cleaner.

    Thanks,

    Peter

    you have to generate the header to change the default mime-type to
    application/xml

    header('Content-type: application/xml; charset=utf-8 ');
