The two resources I use all the time are: 1) the "bible" (Michael Kay's XSLT Programmer's Reference) 2) the FAQ (Dave Pawson's http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/index.html) I also keep around a printed copy of the mini-references at Mullberry Tech site: http://www.mulberrytech.com/quickref/index.html -- Raffaele -----Original Message----- From: Francesco Barresi [mailto:kywocs@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2004 11:35 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] XSL Beginner Resources [was XSL equivalent of SQL having] Hi, I had the same problem, I couldn't find any really good resource about XSL; so I decided that the best, like always, was to get some good books, and so I did. I got XSLT by Michiel van Otegem in italian, this was a good introduction, it's a tutorial book, one of those that you read only once. Then, when I understud the idea of XSLT y I got two more book, that i refer to always: XSLT Cookbook by Sal Mangano, O'Reilly. Essential XML Quick Reference by Aaron Skonnard and Martin Gudgin. This lats one is a most have. Bye Francesco.
