The contentType attribute in the DxpPage (top node) was set to text/xml rather than text/html and a stylesheet was specified. If the client browser can do XSL processing the stylesheet is downloaded by the client and used to format the xml data for display. Doing this on the server would be expensive because a DOM object must be created for each request and the stylesheet must be applied to each DOM to produce the final output for that request. An xml aware browser has to create a DOM object anyway, even for html, so it makes sense to apply the stylesheet on the client rather than the server.
