XML Pages & XSLT Processing

If you have Python4Suite installed in your system, it is possible to save XML documents as pages. It's important to start those pages with an XML declaration "<?xml ...>" in the very first line. Also, you have to specify the stylesheet that is to be used to process the XML document to HTML. This is done using a standard "xml-stylesheet" processing instruction, with the name of a page containing the stylesheet as the "href" parameter.

See the following example for details, which can also be found on the XsltVersion page.

Example

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<?xml-stylesheet href="XsltVersion" type="text/xml"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

   <xsl:output method="html" omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="no"/>

   <xsl:template match="/">
     This Wiki is running an XSLT engine by
     <xsl:value-of select="system-property('xsl:vendor')"/>
     (<a href="{system-property('xsl:vendor-url')}"><xsl:value-of select="system-property('xsl:vendor-url')"/></a>)
     implementing XSLT v<xsl:value-of select="system-property('xsl:version')"/>
   </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
