RE: XSLT Book Recommendation

2001-09-01 Thread Max Dunn

Michael Kay's book, XSLT Programmer's reference, 2nd edition, is
essential (ISBN 1861003129).  Two other good books:
XSLT Quickly, Bob DuCharme (ISBN 1930110111)
The XSL companion, Neil Bradley (ISBN 0201674874)

See the links here:
http://www.siliconpublishing.org/XSL.asp
especially Dave Pawson's FAQ:
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/xslfaq.html
, the XSLT chapter or the XML Bible online at:
http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/books/bible2/chapters/ch17.html
and ZVON's XSLT Tutorial:
http://zvon.org/xxl/XSLTutorial/Books/Book1/index.html

If you're serious, the Mulberry Tech list has a substantial volume, but
the participants are experts and will answer any question at all:

There is no "export to XML" or "Save as XML" in Word XP.  There is
output to HTML, which does contain a ton of pseudo-XML metadata, but
that is no different from Word 2000.

Excuse me, but is there *anything* in Word XP that will facilitate
importing XML?  I haven't noticed such a feature.  

I think the question was how to go from XML to Word, and I don't believe
there is anything in Word XP that does this.  Of course you could code
VBA to write out the Word document, mapping XML context to Word styles,
but that would be no different with the new version of Word.  Or are you
suggesting something else?

I apologize for persisting the off-topic subject.
