Moving to XML

Beginning XSL-T [iv] output specifier

  <xsl:output indent="yes" method="html" 
          doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"/>

• The output specifier is not required
• If it exists it must appear at top level
  • as a child of the xsl:stylesheet element
• indent="yes" says we want the output neatly indented to show structure
• method="html" saya we want the output to have html syntax
  • might have been "xml" or "text"
• doctype-public says include a DOCTYPE declaration of this DTD
• There are a number of other possible attributes.
