Since folks are talking about this at the moment I'd like to chime
in. Basically your running the XML through an XSLT processor and you have
a stylesheet which translates the incoming XML to whatever based on the
rules defined in your stylesheet.
I'd like to read more about how folks are using XSLT in conjuction with
JSP. I don't mean just to do multi channel delivery but more so how they
are able to define layout using XSL instead of using scriptlets to
generate HTML.
