Displaying XML with XSLT
With XSLT you can transform an XML document into HTML.
Displaying XML with XSLT
XSLT is the recommended style sheet language of
XML.
XSLT (eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is far more sophisticated than
CSS.
One way to use XSLT is to transform XML into HTML before it is displayed by
the browser as demonstrated in these examples:
View
the XML file, the XSLT style sheet,
and View the result.
Below is a fraction of the XML file. The second line
links the XML file to the XSLT file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="simple.xsl"?>
<breakfast_menu>
<food>
<name>Belgian Waffles</name>
<price>$5.95</price>

Transforming XML with XSLT on the Server
In the example above, the XSLT transformation is done by the browser, when
the browser reads the XML file.
Different browsers may produce different result when transforming XML with
XSLT. To reduce this problem the XSLT transformation
can be done on the server.
View the result.
Note that the result of the output is exactly the same, either the
transformation is done by the web server or by the web browser.
