Hi Jeni XSLT is suposed to transform a document into another, so why not transform a XML file into a css one and include that with <link>? -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Jeni Tennison Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2002 11:00 PM To: J.Pietschmann Cc: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] Converting Strict XHTML + CSS with XSLT Hi Joerg, > I think selectors can be translated to XPath match patterns easily. > The whole process would be: > > - XMLify CSS, including transforming CSS selectors to XPath > - generate a XSLT from the XCSS which will attach XCSS styles > to matched elements > - run the "enrichment" XSLT on the XHTML > - run the final transformation. Yeah, interesting idea. One potential difficulty I can see with it, though, is that in CSS a single element can match multiple rules, and the styles from all of those rules are applied (with different priorities depending on the specificity of the selector). I think it would be quite hard to mirror that behaviour with XSLT templates... perhaps if you created multiple XSLT stylesheets from the CSS, each stylesheet reflecting a different priority and used xsl:apply-imports within each of them...
