I asked another question about xsl's uses, and had not one answer that would indicate the xsl wasn't needed. Mine was from a publishing point of view. I'm beginning to think that those that wish xsl to go away are narrowly concerned with their own application, and do not care that xml has more than one application. I think you're right. I also think that most arguments against xsl aren't well considered. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run picnic and jaunt, both FreeBSD-current.
