Worth remembering though, that thanks to XSLT, there's really no such thing as XML input data that "cannot change". If there's an algorithm to go from one structure to another, XSLT will apply it for you. Sometimes (e.g if you have a huge mass of legacy data in xml that isn't going to be added to later) it makes sense to write an xsl sheet to transform it up front into xml that needs less acrobatics to convert into (say) html at a later stage. That way, your production xsl to go your altered xml to your final html can be easier to understand and maintain.
