Résumé
Geared toward new users of XSLT, this guide is a basic
tutorial of the concepts and documentation manipulation
techniques necessary for the most common XSLT tasks.
Featuring an XSLT cookbook, which provides task-oriented
recipes for tackling issues such as converting elements to
attributes or reading in multiple documents at once, this
guide makes it easier to find solutions to most development
problems. Included are a glossary, a reference for XSLT
syntax, and a reference for using the popular XSLT
processors. This guide will help XSLT users get common
transformations done with minimal time and effort.
