Default Re: Please review my XML/XSLT site

Having done some more testing on the site and research into different mobile browsers, I have found that currently, no mobile platform acknowledges that they support XML+XSLT, which makes the process more difficult, and has me back to server-side browser sniffing.

I have found that Google can crawl almost any link in an XML+XSLT site, be it a link contained in the XML file itself or a link generated by the XSLT stylesheet. This seems to me pretty impressive considering how uncommon this technology is at this time.

After doing some more research into this method of developing sites, which seems completely designed for the purpose of allowing a single XML file to be redisplayed on a variety of platforms, there seems to be a surprising lack of any way to specify different XSLT templates for different platforms. In fact, there seems to be no way to accomplish this.
