Subject: Re: [xsl] XML/XSLT for web templating From: Kamal Bhatt <kbhatt@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 09 Oct 2007 08:03:38 +1000 |
I would like to know who comes up with this garbage. I am befuddled whenever I hear these objections. I agree it is slower than certain technologies (JSP), but it is far easier to do stuff with (take my word for it) and there are ways of speeding them up (precompilation). I can assure you that not everybody knows JSP. Our web designer would freak out if she had to deal with JSPs, but she can deal with XSLTs (with a little help). XSLTs have a surprising small learning curve for most aspects. The recursive elements of XSLTs take a little more getting used to, but any decent programmer should get them in time. Syntactically, XSLTs are nicer than JSPs and velocity.I face a huge resistance based on the "fame" of XSLT of being:
1. Too slow ... 2. Too difficult ... 3. Too unknown ("everybody knows JSP...") 4. Too old ...
