XSL Transformations (XSLT) in Mozilla

by Axel Hecht

XSLT (XSL Transformations) is a language used to transform XML document into other XML documents. For reference information, see the W3C Recommendation http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt.html. Netscape DevEdge has information on XSLT in general and in Netscape. This document can be found also at developer.mozilla.org. For a quick start into XSLT, see Norman Walsh's Tutorial.
