XSL is a language for expressing stylesheets. It consists of two parts:
|
|
|
|
1. XSLT is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML
|
|
documents, and
|
|
2. an XML vocabulary for specifying formatting semantics (called
|
|
Formatting Objects).
|
|
|
|
The Lotus XSL Processor implements only the first part of XSL, the April 21
|
|
XSL Transformations (XSLT) Draft Specification.
|
|
|
|
An XSLT stylesheet specifies the transformation of a class of XML documents
|
|
by describing how an instance of the class is transformed into another XML
|
|
tree of nodes.
|
|
|
|
LotusXSL uses Version 1.1.16 or 2.0.9 of IBM's XML for Java (called "XML4J")
|
|
to parse an input XML document, or it can be adapted to other DOM-producing
|
|
mechanisms. LotusXSL produces SAX events, an output DOM, or XML result
|
|
document based on the transformations specified in the XSL stylesheet.
