Subject: [xsl] Jeni Tennisons XSLT/XPATH Book mini review From: "cutlass" <cutlass@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 1 Nov 2001 10:20:47 -0000 |
just received Jeni Tennisons new book from amazon;. my first impressions are a) this book sits right next to Michael Kay's book, as it is a great reference to when u have specific problems i.e. ' How do i format dates ? ' and ' How do i group ' and 'How do i use keys'. b) the level of examples and techniques is a step above introductory. c) the latter half of the book delves into framework issues; modular components, extending XSLT, functional modules, and grouping sorting numeric manipulation string and text manipulation general formatting character encoding and entities the above subjects are all detailed in a concise manner, perfect for reference the following subjects are an indepth read; framework: quite a large amt of discussion of how to break apart into reusable elements client side msxml: this will get the novice going server side proc with cocoon: this will get the novice going overview of XPATH: very detailed overview of more medium level techniques using extensions : the clearest illustration and techniques of extending xslt that i've read overall i can highly recc. cheers, jim fuller XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
