Need help converting HTML documents to PDF? This reference guide shows by example how to use XSLT templates to convert 45 commonly used HTML elements to formatting objects (from the XSL-FO vocabulary) for easy transformation to PDF using XSLT.
HTML2FO ist a converter for HTML files to the new XSL:FO format. It supports most of the usual tags. If you are missing a tag or think a tag is not handled as expected please open a feature request item. You may think that you have a XSLT which does the same job. But html2fo does convert documents which are not XML conform.
The so-called identity template that copies everything from input.xml to output.xml, element for element, attribute for attribute, is the most important of all templates in combination with templates of exceptions.

The type-aware and schema-aware features of XSLT 2.0 can greatly assist you when you debug a stylesheet, and improve stylesheet quality and robustness in handling all input data. Learn how to use type-aware and schema-aware XSLT 2.0 during the debugging and testing process to avoid common issues with invalid paths, incorrect assumptions about data types, and cardinalities. Also, find examples of XSLT stylesheets that contain errors that would not be caught if schema-aware features were not in use, and discover how explicitly specifying types results in useful error messages.
XML_Serializer in depth and showing you how it can make working with XML a snap. If you're in any doubt about XML in general, try an Introduction to XML.
These pages are all about XSLT, an XML-based language for translating one set of XML into another set of XML, or into HTML. Of course, there are all sorts of other pages around that cover XSLT. Jeni's XSLT pages, though, are dedicated to helping people understand and make the most of using XSLT.
What is Kernow?
Kernow is an open source tool designed to make it faster and easier to repeatedly run transforms using Saxon.
It uses compiled stylesheets, multiple threads and caching resolvers to make the transforms run efficiently, and comboboxes that remember between runs to save your fingers having to retype paths. Kernow is runnable from Ant allowing it to slot into your build process, and its a high level API for Saxon making it very easy to run transforms from your own Java applications.
This site serves as a repository for the NYU Digital Library Team's METS implementation development projects. At present a modest handful of XSLT-based page-turner and search implementations are freely available for use on an "as is" basis. In the pipeline are a java-based SMIL viewer, a java-based application and a perl-based application to extract a METS file from a database using NYU's zeroDB schema.
"NiceXSL defines a conventional textual representation of XSL that is more amenable to conventional editing. XML overheads are much reduced and abbreviated syntaxes are provided for all XSLT 2.0 constructs."
<oXygen/> is a complete cross platform XML editor providing the tools for XML authoring, XML conversion, XML Schema, DTD, Relax NG and Schematron development, XPath, XSLT, XQuery debugging, SOAP and WSDL testing. The integration with the XML document repositories is made through the WebDAV, Subversion and S/FTP protocols. <oXygen/> also supports browsing, managing and querying native XML and relational databases. The <oXygen/> XML editor is also available as an Eclipse IDE plugin, bringing unique XML development features to this widely used Java IDE.
ycoon is a Python WSGI web development framework which allows XML processing pipelines to handle HTTP requests based on URI pattern matching. It is similar in intention to the Apache Cocoon framework. Pycoon uses sitemap file format compatible with Apache Cocoon Sitemap
A regular expression (regex) is a pattern that can be used to match a string of text. They are a standard feature of many programming languages that are used for text-processing purposes (and they have the inconvenient habit of being implemented ever-so-slightly differently in different languages).
he Saxon-EE product includes within a single package:
A schema-aware XSLT 2.0 processor
A schema-aware XQuery 1.0 processor
An XPath processor that can be called from Java applications
A free-standing XML Schema validator.
Saxon is written in 100% Java and therefore runs on any popular platform
A better approach is to parse the XSLT stylesheet into memory once, compile it to machine-format, and then preserve that machine representation in memory for repeated use. This is called stylesheet compilation and is no different in concept than the compilation of any programming language.
TEI Boilerplate is a lightweight solution for publishing styled TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) P5 content directly in modern browsers. With TEI Boilerplate, TEI XML files can be served directly to the web without server-side processing or translation to HTML. Our TEI Boilerplate Demo illustrates many TEI features rendered by TEI Boilerplate.
The TEIViewer is a browser-based application built on a modification of the XHTML branch of the Text Encoding Initiative XSL stylesheet family and the jQuery JavaScript Library.
XML is text and yet more than just text -- sometimes you want to work with just the content rather than the tags and other markup. In this tip, Uche Ogbuji demonstrates simple techniques for counting the words in XML content using XSLT with or without additional tools.
Sounds weird, but some people could like it: "Learn how to transform Word documents into the XSL Formatting Objects (XSL-FO) format. From the XSL-FO format, you can convert documents into formats such as Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). (7 printed pages)"
UTF-X is a unit testing framework for XSLT. UTF-X strongly supports the test-first-design principle with test rendition and test validation features allowing you to visually design your test before you start working on the stylesheet. UTF-X was originally built to test XSLT stylesheets used in an XML publishing system so it has good support for DTD validation, XHTML and XSL:FO stylesheets.
The W3C's XSL Formatting Objects technology provides an XML language for specifying the layout of documents. In the first article of our XSL FO tutorial series we show you how to set up your pages.
The libferris virtual filesystem presents both files and their metadata as a virtual filesystem. The boundaries of what is considered a filesystem by libferris include such interesting data sources as PostgreSQL, LDAP and Firefox as well as standard Web items, such as HTTP, FTP and RDF.
