Does anyone know if there is an HTML renderer available for FOP? We want to use FOP as file type independent output tool and want users to just be able to select a "layout" (i.e. XSLT file) and then a renderer. I know you can just write a transformation from XML to HTML directly but going via XSL:FO means that we only need one transform to support multiple output formats.
There is no HTML Renderer in FOP. As you have pointed out, you can simply generate HTML directly from XSLT. Generating HTML from XSL-FO would be inefficient as there are two processing steps instead of one. Also XSL-FO formatting is complex and therefore takes a relatively long time, compared with an XSL transform.
If you are worried about having to write a XSL stylesheet for HTML, dont be, plently of people have already written one. Just search Google for one.
