A fast-moving, straightforward guide to transforming and formatting XML documents with XSL

XSL Essentials

Part of XM's popularity and power is in its ability to add flexibility to structured documents and data. The World Wide Web Consortium's Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) is a language that provides a way to transform and format XML documents. With the help of detailed XML source and stylesheet examples, author Michael Fitzgerald shows you how to transform XML documents using XSL Transformations (XSLT). He then explains how to use XSL Formatting Objects (XSLFO) to format XML documents and apply specific properties. Along the way, you'll also learn how to take advantage of other features of XSL including XML Path Language (XPath), numbering and sorting lists, conditional processing, multiple stylesheets, and much more.

Part of the exciting new Wiley XML Essentials Series, this book teaches you how to:
* Transform XML documents into new XML, XHTML, HTML, or text documents with XSLT
* Use all XSLT elements and functions
* Transform B2B documents (includes SOAP and cXML samples)
* Format XML documents with XSLFO using simple page layout, blocks for headings and paragraphs, tables, lists, and more

The CD-ROM contains all the source stylesheets and documents from the book.

The companion Web site at www.wiley.com/compbooks/fitzgerald features:
