That's a great case for XSL. Starting with Safari 1.3 (and so any WebKit 10.3.9 or newer) you can do the transformation at page load with a processing instruction à la http://developer.apple.com/ internet/safari/faq.html#anchor21 The example there is:

	<?xml version="1.0" ?>
	<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="your_transform_file_here.xsl" ?>

If you want to do fancier things like include XSL parameters, you'll probably have to do the transform in Cocoa with NSXMLDocument's - objectByApplyingXSLT:arguments:error:

Can I subclass WebView to interpret custom XML data. I don't want to use HTML input but custom XML. Or should I just use an xslt engine to interpret my XML data into HTML code through a webview. I am trying to create something that will interpret code like:

<button name= "hello" send="helloworld" text="Hello World" enabled="true"/>

This code would create a button on a page with the text "Hello World" inside of it, upon submitting or clicking on the button the key value pair submitted to the server would be { hello: helloworld}

Should I just use XSLT or do I have to modify the WebView code to do this for me???
