If you want to include a CSS file with your web page, you're going to have to make sure that the (HTML) content emitted to the browser contains a "<link rel="stylesheet" href="treeview/treeview.css" />" element. > <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="treeview/treeview.xslt" ?> This directive will instruct the browser to transform the current document (the one for which you provided the source) using "treeview/treeview.xslt". JSP will not automatically transform your XML document, but the browser should. It will download the XSLT and transform your document -- I assume into HTML. I can't tell what your XSLT does. In terms of the CSS stylesheet, your XSLT should probably emit the <link> element required to get the browser to use that stylesheet. I recommend that you take a step back. Take the file you posted, along with the CSS And XSLT files, ad just try to get it working on your local machine. There's no need to have a web server and JSP runner confusing things. Mozilla Firefox (and I think MSIE) will transform your XML document if you just load it right off your local disk. Once that's working, /then/ you can throw JSP into the mix and start generating dynamic XML to be transformed. Some more free advice: if you want to do XSLT transformations, don't rely on the browser to do them properly. I've seen some weird stuff when ff transforms XML, sometimes resulting in errors which make the page unusable. Also, you can never detect errors that occur in the browser, so you might never know anything is wrong unless you get angry calls from customers. I highly recommend Cocoon, which was designed to do nothing but transform XML using easily defined pipelines that can do some amazing things.
