I completely agree with your post. How about this translation of css? <css:stylesheet> <css:rule match=[XSL_match_pattern] [css_attributes] /> <css:media type='print'> [css_rules] </css:media> </css:stylesheet> Where [XSL_match_pattern] is an XSL match pattern and [css_attributes] are exactly the attributes in the css spec. XSL match pattern has the following extensions: OtherMatchExpr ::= PredicateExpr PredicateExpr ::= link() | visited() | active() | hover() | focus() | lang(c) | is-id(constant) Examples taken from the CSS2 spec: <css:rule match='SPAN[hello="Cleveland" and goodbye="Columbus"]' color='blue'/> <css:rule match='A/link()' color='red'/> <css:media type='print'> <css:rule match='BODY' font-size='10pt'/> </css:media> // supporting @page <css:rule match='page()/left()' margin-left='4cm'/> <css:rule match='H1/before()' content='"Chapter " counter(chapter) ". "' counter-increment='chapter' counter-reset='section'/> <css:rule match='H1|H2|H3' font-style='italic'/> <css:rule match='D' display='inline' font-weight='bolder'/> Scott Ferguson Caucho Technology XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
