Re: [xsl] Introducing myself to the list

["O'Neil Delpratt oneil@xxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For client-side XSLT processing in the browser Saxon-CE or frameless are
best.

Saxon/C is good for server-side languages. With Saxon/C you can interface it
with many languages that are built from or have links  C or C++: such as PHP,
Python, Ruby, etc.

For the node.js people the project https://github.com/rimmartin/saxon-node
<https://github.com/rimmartin/saxon-node> is worth looking at as well.

kind regards,

O'Neil
