XSL has no markup power over HTML. If it can't be done with HTML, you won't be able to do it with XSL. XSL serves as a translation language that transforms XML into HTML for display. The reason it is difficult to display VFP reports (and reports from other tools) directly in a browser is because there would have to be a translator program that converts the language of the reporting tool (foxels, twips etc) to HTML and CSS absolute positioning. Without a translator of some sort, the client has to have reader software installed. This is where Adobe Acrobat really shines: VFP reports can be printed to files that are viewable with a free reader that integrates fairly seamlessly into the browser.

>XSL is very powerful and you should not have a problem creating your complex VFP report there.

I disagree. There is nothing magically graphical about XSL that gives it insight into the object location language of the VFP report format. The answer is the same as the answer to the frx->html question: it is possible, but not without a LOT of work.
