Introduction

Snippets of XSLT code are scattered throughout the book and are often used to introduce you to a feature of the markup language. They appear in the chapters like this:

 <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:template match="id"> <h1><xsl:apply-templates/></h1> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> 

If you type these stylesheets by hand, pay close attention and type the text exactly as shown to ensure that the stylesheet transforms properly. Generally, spaces dont matter much, although depending on where they are, they could change the look of the output from a transformation. However, case sensitivity is important for any XML or XSLT element. I use lowercase text in all the examples, so I recommend getting used to typing lowercase to avoid confusion or problems down the line.

If XSLT element names or instructions appear within the regular text, they look like this .
