XSLT, 2nd Edition

Summary

This chapter has covered the various ways you can generate output from your XSLT stylesheets. You’ll use those basic techniques in every stylesheet you write. The main challenge as we go forward is learning how to select and organize the elements you want to process. You might need logic to select elements that have certain properties or you might need to sort or group elements before you process them. You might need to use special functions not defined in XSLT or XPath. You might need to write output to more than one document. Future chapters will address all of those topics.

Whatever your stylesheet does, you’ll ultimately use the output methods in this chapter.
