This is where I think developers make a big mistake (caring less about CSS). As demonstrated by Stefano with his thumbnail XSLT, lack of thinking about the larger picture in the 'design-space' makes things much more difficult. I would bet that many cocooners could get rid of a great deal of their XSLT line-count/complexity if they truly understood how XSLT co-exists with CSS. You're right that designers won't be able to do it. That is why you have to do it. They give you a Photoshop mockup and you take it from there. <snip/> > > I could write something like: > > <HTML template:article="source:/article"> > <HEAD> > <TITLE>{article:title}</TITLE> > </HEAD> > <BODY> > <H1>{article:title}</H1> > <P tmpl:author="{cocoon:/data/authors/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/author"> > Author: > <A href="mailto:{author:email}";>{author:name}</A> > </P> > {article:body} > <DL> > <DT>Other top news from us</DT> > <template:foreach context="topnews:/related/articleref";> > <DL> > <A href="/news/{context:@id}">{context:title}</A> > </DL> > </template:foreach> > </BODY> > </HTML> > This looks like a very simple XSLT, using the document function...
