XSLT 2.0: after an abortive attempt to create a version 1.1 in 2001, the XSL working group joined forces with the XQuery working group to create XPath 2.0, with a richer data model and type system based on XML Schema.Despite its age, XSLT 1.0 is still widely used (as of 2018), since later versions are not supported natively in web browsers or for environments like LAMP. XSLT 1.0 was published as a W3C recommendation in November 1999. Some members of the standards committee that developed XSLT, including James Clark, the editor, had previously worked on DSSSL. XSLT 1.0: XSLT was part of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)'s eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) development effort of 1998–1999, a project that also produced XSL-FO and XPath.Its most direct predecessor is DSSSL, which did for SGML what XSLT does for XML. XSLT is influenced by functional languages, and by text-based pattern matching languages like SNOBOL and AWK. 6.2 Example 2 (transforming XML to XHTML).6.1 Example 1 (transforming XML to XML).Īlthough XSLT is designed as a special-purpose language for XML transformation, the language is Turing-complete, making it theoretically capable of arbitrary computations. Typically, input documents are XML files, but anything from which the processor can build an XQuery and XPath Data Model can be used, such as relational database tables or geographical information systems. The original document is not changed rather, a new document is created based on the content of an existing one. XSLT 1.0 is widely supported in modern web browsers. XSLT ( Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML documents, or other formats such as HTML for web pages, plain text or XSL Formatting Objects, which may subsequently be converted to other formats, such as PDF, PostScript and PNG.
