Assuming you are using JPluck X 0.9, click on Tools | Development | Convert HTML to XML. Paste in the URL and click Retrieve. Click Copy all to Clipboard. Paste into the the XSLT tool of your choice. XMLSpy works very well at this task, but is quite pricey. A free alternative is either jEdit (see www.jedit.org and http://jpluck.sourceforge.net/jpluck2/docs/jedit.html) or XML Cooktop (http://xmlcooktop.com/). There are some XSLT examples included with the JPluck distribution to help you get started. A great, but brief, reference book to get is "Essential XML Quick Reference" by Aaron Skonnard and Martin Gudgin.
Ideally, I'd let JPluck transform the starting page with XSLT automatically. As I have never used XSLT before, I am looking for an easier way to debug a stylesheet than running JPluck on a page and looking at the resulting pdb: in particular, it would be nice to get a serial dump of the parse tree that the stylesheet is applied to and the result of the transformation.
I tried to run xsltproc on the HTML page, but it is so malformed that I don't get far with this approach; even HTML tidy failed to clean it up.
