Subject: Re: [xsl] What do you call a stylesheet that doesn't require an input XML? From: JBryant@xxxxxxxxx Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2005 09:53:44 -0500 |
How about these? Lazy (won't do nothin' unless someone gives me some XML) Ambitious (gonna go get my own XML!) Snobby (too good to associate with other files) :D Or you could go with External (XML source is defined outside the stylesheet) Internal (XML source is defined inside the stylesheet) Stand-alone (doesn't need an XML source) I'm a little uncomfortable with Internal versus External, since I have written my stylesheets that use the collection feature to get XML source documents such that they take a path parameter. So there's still some information coming from outside the stylesheet. Also, the terms are generic enough to be confusing. There's also Uncollected Collected Stand-alone Just some ideas.

There's a third kind - those that do not reference an XML document at all. There's quite a few of these in the test suite for FXSL. -- Colin Adams Preston Lancashire
