Subject: Re: [xsl] How did you learn XSL? From: Mukul Gandhi <gandhi.mukul@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2009 12:26:02 +0530 |
I think, I wrote my first XSLT stylesheet in 2000 (a kind of "hello world" program :)). The initial XSLT days for me, were difficult to solve complex problems (I was struct with functional/procedural impedance mismatch :)). In 2000-01 I straight away subscribed to this list, and asked numerous questions here. Many list regulars, helped me with valuable insights. My learning resources for XSLT, were primarily following: 1) This list. This I believe, is the best resource in the long run. 2) Michael Kay's original XSLT 1.0 book, which I can claim I read completely. I would say, Mike's XSLT books are like "The C programming Language", by Brian Kernighan & Dennis Ritchie. I have read Mike's XSLT 2.0 & XPath 2.0 book as well (though not in entirety. But I have read most critical XSLT 2.0/XPath 2.0 areas, in Mike's books), which has same quality as his XSLT 1.0 book. 3) Dave Pawson's XSL FAQs. 4) I regularly, refer W3C's XSLT and XPath specs, for knowing deeper details about these languages. I learnt XSL-FO some from this list, some of it from Dave Pawson's book, Dave's XSL FAQs, and the W3C XSL-FO spec. An amount of self learning, and expereimenting was also helpful :) On Fri, Sep 4, 2009 at 3:17 AM, Liam Quin <liam@xxxxxx> wrote: > What resources were most useful to you in learning XSL? > > If books or tutorials, which ones?
