RE: [xsl] Naming styles

[xptm@xxxxxxx]

I usually tend to use camel case, too, be in vb style ("MasterTableName") or
java style ("masterTableName"), but i sometimes use "sql style" like
"MASTER_TABLE_NAME", so if i don't follow a rule but instead go on my mood
for
the day i usually get things a mess.
