	XSL Transformations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		XSLT was produced as a result of the Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) development effort within W3C during 1998–1999, which also produced XSL Formatting Objects (XSL-FO) and the XML Path Language, XPath.
		XSLT relies upon the W3C's XPath language for identifying subsets of the source document tree, as well as for performing calculations.
		XSLT stylesheets are declarative, not procedural; rather than defining a sequence of operations to execute, they define rules and other hints applied during processing, according to a fixed algorithm.

	Rescuing XSLT from Niche Status
		XSLT is one of the most exciting technologies to come out of the XML family.
		As a programmer with more than 20 years experience with over a dozen languages, XSLT templates and default rules were not obvious to me. Over the past year or two I had looked at numerous examples trying to discern how they worked.
		For XSLT to be successful it must be presented and used in a way that adopts those attributes discussed earlier (reuse of knowledge, fast start, and gradualism).

	XSL Transformations (XSLT)
		A transformation in the XSLT language is expressed as a well-formed XML document [XML] conforming to the Namespaces in XML Recommendation [XML Names], which may include both elements that are defined by XSLT and elements that are not defined by XSLT.
		An XSLT processor may signal the error; if it does not signal the error, it must recover by choosing, from amongst the matches that are left, the one that occurs last in the stylesheet.
		An XSLT processor may signal the error; if it does not signal the error, it must recover by choosing from amongst the definitions that specify the attribute that have the highest import precedence the one that was specified last in the stylesheet.

	Improve your XSLT coding five ways
		The XSLT style sheet is applied first to products.xml, the XML document.
		Indeed, since XSLT is great for transforming XML documents into other XML documents, it stands to reason that it is ideal for transforming XSLT style sheets themselves.
		The XSLT 1.0 is the latest official version of XSLT, at the time of writing.

	DevGuru XSLT Introduction
		Indeed, XSLT is usually referred to as the stylesheet language of XML, however XML and XSLT are far more sophisticated technologies than HTML and CSS.
		The most important aspect of XSLT is that it allows you to perform extremely complex manipulations on the selected tree nodes by affecting both content and appearance.
		The heart of XSLT is composed of the 35 elements defined by W3C.

	O'Reilly: Top Ten Java and XSLT Tips
		XSLT processors do the actual transformations; Sun Microsystems' Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) provides a standard Java interface to various processors.
		When using XSLT as a rudimentary code generator, it is best to focus on applications that are repetitive and highly structured.
		XSLT is not a difficult language, although it does work quite differently than Java.

		Although XSLT is very powerful, the adoption of the language has been slow.
		One of the most powerful aspects of XSLT is its use of templates that “match” a set of conditions you define.

	OPML and XSLT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		It uses the W3C standard XSLT 1.0 and has been tested to work under the nine major XSLL processors available for a variety of platforms, including MSXML3, Apache Xalann, and Oracle XSLL.
		In addition, the XSLT test tool includes a separate batch file for each of the eight other popular XSLTT processors, showing how to call each from the command-line.
		XSLT - you should be able to modify the XSLTT and still have the CSSSS and JavaScript work fine, as long as you keep the existing structure of DIVss and attribute classes.

	XSLT
		XSLT implements transformation "by example", not just "by program logic", and builds in support for the kinds of transformation typically needed to present information.
		Your objective, as an XSLT stylesheet writer, is to give an XSLT engine examples of how each of the constructs in your information is supposed to be structured once it has been transformed.
		With XSLT you are not restricted to present your information in the same order you created it, nor are you required to present all of your information.

	MF Bliki: MovingAwayFromXslt
		My conclusion from this exercise was that using Ruby for XML transforms was much easier than using XSLT.
		XSLT makes calling subroutines so painful that you are seriously discouraged from using them, which encourages duplicate code.
		XSLT handles simple tasks well, but is baroque when it comes to more complicated things.

	TopXML : Learn XSL & XPath Tutorial
		Until now it was believed that although XSLT is based on functional programming ideas, it is not as yet a full functional programming language, as it lacks the ability to treat functions as a first-class data type.
		Based on numerous concrete XSLT implementations of some of the major functional programming design patterns, including some of the most generic list-processing and tree-processing functions, this article provides ample proof that XSLT is in fact a full-pledged functional programming language.
		Using the XSLT functional programming library FXSL, examples are given of performing functional composition, currying and partial application of functions, as well as of dynamically creating a function, which corresponds to a lambda expression.

	The Extensible Stylesheet Language Family (XSL)
		An XSLT stylesheet specifies the presentation of a class of XML documents by describing how an instance of the class is transformed into an XML document that uses a formatting vocabulary, such as (X)HTML or XSL-FO.
		Tiger XSLT Mapper has been created to focus on transforming XML to XML and XML to XHTML, which is data-to-data transformation.
		While the mappings and XML structures are modified, the XSLT template is automatically generated and modified.

		What sets XSLT apart from other books on this critical tool is the depth of detail and breadth of knowledge that Doug Tidwell, a developer with years of XSLT experience, brings to his concise treatment of the many talents of XSLT.
		Useful as XSLT is, its peculiar characteristics make it difficult to get started in, and the ability to use advanced techniques depends on a clear and exact understanding of how XSLT templates work and interact.
		XSLT can be hard to grasp for people (like me) coming from traditional procedural programming, Doug Tidwell is well aware of this issue and try pretty well to address it in the book.

	XSL Transformations
		Because XSLT is now an official Recommendation of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), I'm hopeful that any changes that do occur will simply add to the existing syntax without invalidating style sheets that adhere to the 1.0 spec.
		XSLT is not a general-purpose regular expression language for transforming arbitrary data.
		The XSLT style sheet follows the -xsl flag and is 17-2.xsl here; and the output HTML file follows the -out argument and is named 17-3.html.

	Xsltp.pl - Perl XSLT processor
		Open architecture of the processor allows developers to extend functionality of the XSLT processor by just coping the extension module, written in Perl, in the desired place and instructing the program that it must load it when the module is required by the XSLT stylesheet.
		The input for the function is generated by the XSLT processor through processing the xsl:message element body and passing the result to the message_handler.
		Any parameter passed to the XSLT processor must have a type supported by it.
