I love to transform on the fly...you can do some really killer stuff on
with php, xml and xsl(t). With PHP5 and libxml i see alot of great
thinngs happening.  I have created sites that do the transformation on
the server and cache the transformations or you can do the transforms on
the client...off loading to the client is nice many times.

It is a rework of struts or based on struts. I must say there are times
when xml is taken to the extreme.
