I was just wondering: Does XMLSpy or other IDE have an UML type kinda functionalities? What I mean is is it possible to have a graphical view of what template is call where, by what XSL stylesheet, etc..?? ... really like UML for Java/C++.

'Saves time' being the operative phrase here. An IDE is not simply beneficial for learning XSLT, it makes the XSL development process go much faster with less need for the verbose user input required by XML/XSL. Don't underestimate the value of the XSL debugging environment provided by XMLSpy. It's first rate and, IMO, indispensable for professional XML/XSL development. For schema developers, the 'generate documentation' function of XMLSpy is a real plus. In truth, I'm a Mac user at heart and a big fan of BBEdit. I've tried a lot of other tools for XML dev too, but became sold on XMLSpy after using it for a tricky Win dev project. It's well worth looking into and with a 30 day free (fully functional) download demo there's no up front financial commitment.
