XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML documents, or other objects such as HTML for web pages, plain text or into XSL Formatting Objects which can then be converted to PDF, PostScript and PNG.

The original document is not changed; rather, a new document is created based on the content of an existing one.

What kind of a language is XSLT?

XSLT is an abbreviation for EXtensible Stylesheet Language and is used to convert information into another document and to convert it to another XML-document.


Which mechanism do you use to directly change an XML file from one DTD into another?

To directly change an XML file from one Document Type Definition (DTD) to another, you can use an XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) stylesheet. XSLT allows you to define rules that specify how to transform the structure and content of an XML document to match the new DTD. By applying the XSLT transformation to the original XML, you can generate a compliant XML file that adheres to the new DTD. This method is efficient and maintains the integrity of the data while adapting the format.

What are the various versions of XSLT?

Type your XSLT is a complete high-level language for manipulating XML documents in the same way that SQL is a high-level language for manipulating relational tables. It's important to understand that it's much more than just a styling language, and that it's vastly more powerful than CSS (or even CSS2).I have already seen applications in which all the business logic is coded in XSLT. In one three-tier online banking system I looked at:All the data was retrieved from the back-end operational systems in the form of XML messages.The account data for a user was represented for the duration of an online session in the form of an XML DOM in memory.All information destined for the user was first packaged as an XML message, then converted to HTML by means of an XSLT transformation carried out either on the server or the client, depending on the capabilities of the browser.The data for this application was all in XML, and the logic (including data access logic, business logic, and presentation logic) was all implemented in XSLT. I'd be frightened of recommending every project to adopt that architecture, but it has a lot going for it, and I think we'll see more systems like that in the years to come.As a programming language, XSLT has many features -- from its use of XML syntax to its basis in functional programming theory -- that are unfamiliar to the average Web programmer. That means there is a steep learning curve and often a lot of frustration. The same was true of SQL in the early days, and all that this really proves is that XSLT is radically different from most things that have gone before.


How should a CSS stylesheet to applied to an XML document?

If you are planning on loading an XML document as a web page, you usually have to define what each element in your XML actually does (what it translates to as well as how it's styled). This is typically done with XSLT, which basically translates your XML into HTML/Javascript/CSS. I've placed a link to some good starter's information in the related links section.
