Re: <Announcement> Whitehill <xsl>Composer Tutorial ...


Folks,

This is correct. Composer generates XSLT stylesheets to create a desired
HTML result. Also, currently Composer does not support either in-place
editing of the generated XSLT, or the import of XSLT which has been modified
outside of Composer. This capability will be added later this year.

Also, though Composer DOES use IE5 for its internal preview functionality,
neither the generated XSLT nor the resultant HTML is in anyway IE5-specific.
The XSLT should work with any compliant processor. Also, our goal was to
produce a browser-independant result.

cheers
