XSL Languages
This lesson is part of XML · All levels
Summary
The term XSL includes three languages with different roles: XSLT for transformation, XPath for navigation and node selection, and XSL-FO for output layout. XSLT and XPath complement each other because each XSLT template uses an XPath expression. The combination of the three forms a complete XML processing system.
Key points
- XSLT is involved in changing the structure of XML documents
- XPath is the node that selects the process
- XSL-FO is involved in the final outcome layout
- XSLT relies heavily on XPath for selection
- All three are part of the XSL specification.
