Dave Stamm ///// From: stc-single-sourcing-l-bounces+dave.stamm=gdc4s....@mailman.stc.org [mailto:[email protected] rg] On Behalf Of Alan Houser Sent: 2010-Sep-29-Wed 20:25 To: Stamm, David-P45904 Cc: STC Single Sourcing SIG List Subject: Re: [STC-1S-L] Requesting recommendations, professional readings Since both of the second pair of titles are freely available on the Web, I suspect it would be worthwhile to obtain them. :-) There aren't many XSL-FO texts out there, and Pawson's is as good as you will find (I would mention Ken Holman's materials as well). The vendors (RenderX and Antenna House) also have some good educational materials and examples. For XSLT, I recall that Tidewell's book was a good primer, but other authors (Kay, Tennyson) provide much more depth and breadth with a wider variety of examples. The XSLT and XPath Recommendations are also good source material -- they can be read and understood by mortals (unlike the XSL-FO Recommendation). Nothing can come close to a real-world project as a motivator for understanding these technologies and exposing your knowledge gaps. Good luck! -Alan --- Alan Houser, President Group Wellesley, Inc. 412-363-3481 www.groupwellesley.com ///// -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Lea Rush Sent: 2010-Oct-05-Tue 11:14 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Requesting recommendations, professional readings Hi Dave, Any chance that you would share the recommendations?
