how 2 return xml dataset to non-.NET users, formatted in a table?

We have some services that return datasets. In asp.net datagrids they look
fine. But we have external users that want to use these same web services
from a GET, because they do not have a web-service enabled platform. The
returned dataset appears as straight XML to them (ugly), and they would like
a way to see it fomatted in a table.

Theoretically they could save the XML to a file, have an XSL page format it.
But this requires a step for a programmer to do this, every time they call
the service. They have a web application with framesets, and when they call
our web service with a GET, they want the result to appear in their frame
already formatted! I am wondering if the only way to do this is via some
middleware, ie, BizTalk etc? I'm at a loss.

Thanks,
