The Extensible Stylesheet Language

XSLT is a declarative language used to define transformations from XML documents into (usually) other XML documents.

XSLT is provided as a service accessed with an operator parameter referencing the XSLT stylesheet and an operand parameter referencing the XML document to be transformed.

active:xslt+operator@{xsl-stylesheet}+operand@{xml-document}

The result of an XSLT transform is a new resource which can be mapped to a URI address. Pipelined transforms make it easy to create filters, generate views on data, or style data for presentation.

• active:xslt - regular XSLT 1.0 engine.
