yes, looking for favorable adoption characteristics in a lot of this architecture is difficult. the previously mentioned AxKit is kinda the perl cocoon, in only that you can quickly enable a webserver to parse documents; it does not have any publishing methodology etc that cocoon does, though it does have a lot of additional functionality and hooks into perl plus the neat taglibs. this requires mod_perl and some heavy duty access to the server, thusly not being a good 'webspace' option; but if u can convince your ISP go wild ! the best perf i have observed, in perl, are perl interfaces to libxslt or sablotron, though admittedly there will be others on this list who have done the hard work of generating the perf metrics. some ISP's will build or make accessible a staticlly built binary for use in cgi-bin or perl scripts; but once again this is not std. some other options that u could implement in a webspace; -php has a nice extension to sablotron -i have written a cold fusion tag that basically makes a webserver with coldfusion an xslt parsing platform. furthermore; We want to author docs and transforms that are not bound to anything special, ie a special calling template ( this is a similiar idiom to calling params in IE vs command line, etc, we all want one standard way to inject params into transform ), thats why i like to have the parsing done at the 'webserver' level and this being assoc as a handler to the mime type xml; yes this is a heavy handed approach, but i have tried all sorts of things cheers ,jim fuller ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert Koberg" <rob@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, September 24, 2001 2:31 PM Subject: perl & xslt - was -> RE: [xsl] passing variables to a stylesheet > Hi - this conversation is really interesting to me.
