Greetings! Thanks Michiel, Barry for responding. I don't have a thorough understanding of xslt either and I have been mostly using various web tutorials to guide me. I thought xslt is something that I can get up to speed with real quick but I was wrong. I need to inverst in a good book. Do you guys have any suggestions on a good XSLT book?
So, before I start posting xslt code, let me get a better understanding, so I can ask more intelligible questions ;-) Curtney On Wednesday 04 August 2004 08:55 am, Barry van Oven wrote: > Curtney, why not post your XSLT and generated XML, so we can take a look at > it? > > }-----Original Message----- > }From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > }On Behalf Of Michiel Meeuwissen > }Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2004 9:16 AM > }To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > }Subject: Re: Modifying x2html.xsl does not change resulting xhtml > } > }Curtney Jacobs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > }> I followed the formatter.jsp example.
