I have used XSLT before and can't say I particularly liked it. I have my
own "lame" (as you put it ;) php templating system which I prefer much
more. Mind you, in all honesty, XSLT support can be plugged into my
templating engine if I wanted without any adaptation to the engine
itself.

Cheers,
Rob.
