If I look at the source of the page  at Alexander's URL it's all just standard HTML:

Nitpicky me would prefer a document type declaration, and well-formed HTML (there's no </html> for instance), but I don't see any need for an XSL-capable browser.

What have I missed?

As for Opera, my Opera displays the page at Alexander's URL just fine, as did Links. I must have misunderstood someone in this discussion.
