A Webel zone dedicated to the eXtensible Stylesheet Language
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSL:
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT:In computing, the term Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) is used to refer to a family of languages used to transform and render XML documents.
Historically, the XSL Working Group in W3C produced a draft specification under the name XSL, which eventually split into three parts:
- XSL Transformation (XSLT): an XML language for transforming XML documents
- XSL Formatting Objects (XSL-FO): an XML language for specifying the visual formatting of an XML document
- XML Path Language (XPath): a non-XML language used by XSLT, and also available for use in non-XSLT contexts, for addressing the parts of an XML document.
XSLT (eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML documents, or other formats such as HTML for web pages, plain text or XSL Formatting Objects, which may subsequently be converted to other formats, such as PDF, PostScript and PNG. XSLT 1.0 is widely supported in modern web browsers.
Some examples of XML documents transformed by XSL to HTML:
- The old NeXML sub-project site uses JSP-driven XSL transformations to serve a templated sub-site.
- It includes examples of NeXus data format "Meta-DTD" XML templates (which format is now obsolete) transformed to hyperlinked HTML tables
