Sandy,
http://www.w3schools.com/ is very good for quick-start intro's.
If you send a sample of your XML and the HTML output you are looking for, we can created a sample XSLT for you.
cheers

Subject: [xsl] Complete newbie stupid question
Hi, I'm new to the list, to XML, to XSL, XSLT and pretty much everything
related.
I am trying to do what seems like a simple operation. I just want a
stylesheet that calls a template in which nested templates specify
formatting for specific nodes. Seems simple. Seemed simple for the first
3 days I tried to make it work. I am now a blithering idiot who can
hardly spell XML. Can someone please refer me to a good source that can
help me sort this out? Or better yet, show me an example?
I have been attempting the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"/>
<xsl:output method="html" version="4.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match= "/">
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Head1">
<html>
<font face="Arial" color="black" size="24"
style="bold"/>
<br/>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I have tried every variation of this known to man.
Sorry to waste your time and expertise, but I am getting nowhere.
I appreciate your pearls of wisdom.
Sandy
