One reason to want to use .fo files and generate html is for documentation.
Then you could write you documentation in .fo files and generate from that
the documentation in different formats like html, pdf, etc.

Just use a parser (Xerces) and transformer (Xalan) to convert your XML to
HTML. The stylesheet is actually quite simple once you get the layout
straight. For example, here is the main template for the stylesheet we use
to convert our reports to HTML format:
<xsl:template match="report">
<html>
<head>
<title>
LOG-NET Report - <xsl:value-of
select="reportsubtitle"/>
</title>
</head>
<style>
TD.header {font-weight: bold; color:
black}
TD.normal {}
</style>
<body>
<font face="Tahoma,Courier,Verdana,Arial"
size="3">
<div align="left" style="float:left;">
<xsl:apply-templates select="logoURL"/>
<br clear="left"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="reportheader"/>
<br clear="left"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="versionInfo"/>
<br clear="left"/>
</div>
<div align="center">
<br clear="left"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="reporttitle"/>
<br clear="left"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="reportcustomer"/>
<br clear="left"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="reportsubtitle"/>
<br clear="left"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="reportparms"/>
</div>
<br />
<br />
<xsl:apply-templates select="details"/>
<br />
<br />
<div align="center" style="float:center;">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="logoCopyURL"/>
</div>
</font>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
Primitive, but it works great. The only issue we are haiving it with SVG
support, but that is currently a browser issue (at least in IE6 without a
plugin). To get around it, we either leave out the images or convert the
SVG to a raster format on the fly and embed the link.
