ASP Reporting Application

I have a need to develop a reporting application that has static and
parameterized reports that I want my users to be able to access and retrieve
through a web interface.

I'm trying to find out the standard/preferred way of displaying reports. My
original thought process pointed me towards generating xml files for the
static reports and having standard xsl files to display them.

How should I build the form-submitted report requests using asp? Should I
generate xml from asp and have standard xsls for displaying them? Or should
I iterate through the result recordsets and just build html with
response.write?

Essentially I'm just looking for a high level summary of how ASP reporting
applications should be developed, and I feel confident that I could go from
there.
