RE: XSL version?



Umm. I'm lost. My face goes blank when Xpath is mentioned. 

maybe my question is this:

I'm modifiing the XSL to match our corporate style for her xml documents.
But currently (since we're new at this) I take her XML, and use saxon to
transform it to PDF, webpages, .chms, etc. But this isn't my job, and I'd
like to hand it back to her. Can I give her my stylesheets and let HER
output to the different formats rather than giving me the XML and me doing
it? When she trys to do this, it looks crappy and doesn't account for all
the elements used in the XML.

The ultimate goal is to separate the content from style, and anyone (her,
me, the other tech writer, engineers) with an xml editor can make
corrections to the docs, and transform it using my stylesheets.

I am guessing you are talking about a different version of Xpath transform ~
but its not really my space so I am not sure.  I use a frame plug in called
FrameSLT which is a cut down version of Xpath which I can use on Structured
FrameMaker (SFM) docs without having to do the whole round-tripping to XML.
So I can transform inside Frame without having to learn all of XSLT.

If you are porting XML content from other applications keep using XSLT.  If
you just want to manipulate SFM docs then maybe have a look at the plug in.

Cheers

Hi.

Is there a way to update FM's XSL stylesheets to 1.68.1?

Thanks!
