Hi, this is to followup an earlier announcement of an XML/XSLT processing task for Ant. I've extended the styler task to allow custom parsers, transformers and serializers. Based on that, I've added a transformer for "regular fragmentations" (see http://simonstl.com/projects/fragment/ ). I expect the ability to split up element content to be rather useful in pipelines with XSLT transformations. Combined with the HTML parser it should make the styler task ideal for "screen scraping". One of our applications is to convert template.HTML->(styler pipeline)->skin.XSLT and then data.XML+skin.XSLT->(styler pipeline)->view.HTML The styler task makes useful combinations of XSLT transformations easy to specify in an Ant build file. Like the built-in task style, styler can apply a single transformation to a set of XML files. But it can also: * handle multiple transformations, in parallel or pipelined. * enable transformations that split or merge files * process non-XML files, especially HTML (based on JTidy) * apply non-XSLT transformation, especially "regular fragmentations" * use any custom XMLReader or XMLFilter class to handle new file formats and transformation techniques.
