Ah, but then you have to manually craft a script for
each XML transformation -- and XSLT is generic and can
be done by someone who knows hardly anything about
programming.
We use it at work to dynamically create custom user
interfaces for an in-house web server that is built in
Progress -- my colleagues know hardly anything about
XSL, but they know enough XML to produce valid XML
data from the database queries.
