The Ground Cero Guide to XSL
1. Introduction
The following is a basic introduction to the Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL). The tutorial is meant for
beginners, preferably with a bit of experience in HTML. It's not a complete guide to XSL, but rather an attempt
to guide the reader through the first basic steps of developing in XSL. After understanding the material
covered here, it's my hope that the reader will feel better prepared to go and read some of the
more advanced stuff on the topic.
The name of the tutorial may seem a bit odd at first. The explanation is that I once wrote "The Ground Cero Guide to C",
and would like this to be the second tutorial in the "The Ground Cero Guide to"-series. With the rate that I'm putting
these out, you should expect the third chapter to arrive around 2009.
Any comments, suggestions or errors may be sent to me.
I would also be very happy to hear from
you even if you don't have anything in particular to say, but have read the tutorial.
As a quick sidenote, I would like to say beforehand that I do know that writing "XML-language" is the same as writing
language-language, but I have yet to find an appropriate subsitute. Please forgive that.
