Hi,
I was just writing a reply, but David was faster, I wanted to say the same.
(<img src{$theme}view.gif" title="View"/>)
As for links, I have learned a lot from these:

http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/books/bible2/chapters/ch17.html
Chapter 17 of the  XML Bible, Second Edition : XSL Transformations

http://safari.oreilly.com/?XmlId=0-596-00372-2
XSLT Cookbook (completely readable online)

and of course, the http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/ XSL FAQ

cheers
Anton
