Definition

XSL (eXtensible Stylesheet Language) is a family of W3C recommendations for specifying XML document transformations and typesettings. XSL is composed of three separate parts:

  • XSLT (eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations): a template-rule based language for the structural transformation of XML documents.

  • XPath (XML Path Language): a structured query language for the pattern, type and value-based selection of XML document nodes.

  • XSL-FO (XML Formatting Objects): an XML vocabulary for the paper document oriented typesetting of XML documents.

Historical Background

The development of XSL was mainly motivated by the need for an open typesetting standard for displaying and printing XML documents. Its conception was strongly influenced by the DSSSL (Document Style Semantics and Specification Language) ISO standard (ISO/IEC 10179:1996) for SGML documents....
