Subject: Re: Doubts regarding XSL and DOM From: "Amit Rekhi" <amitr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 30 Oct 1998 10:03:29 +0530 |
Paul, I realise my ques.'s were pretty dumb and were rooted in my lack of the DOM spec. knowledge.Sorry for being unclear about what I was trying to ask. :-) >What do you mean by "traverse"? Do you want to process a node elsewhere in >a tree? By "traversal" I meant full freedom of accessing anything to everything in my src. XML tree. By your reply I get a feeling that all types of "traversals" (the way I refer to it) should be possible through the pattern syntax. DOM comes no way in the picture. Am I right? > So is your question whether XSL should have an embedded programming language? Yes. I guess that is what all my doubts boil down to, since if I want DOM interfaces , I'll need a programming language (say JavaScript), so yes it does boil down to the ques. you stated. The reason why I thought of DOM within XSL was since the earlier versions of XSL supported a read- only DOM like interface for the src. XML tree which is missing in this spec. Thanks for your time and clearing my doubts, AMIT XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
