通过使用XSL，您可以向
XML文档添加显示信息。
使用XSL显示XML
XSL是首选的
XML样式表语言。
XSL远比
CSS更加完善。使用XSL的方法之一是在浏览器显示
XML文件之前，先把它转换为
HTML，正如以下的这些例子演示的那样：
查看
XML文件:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
- <!--Edited with

- <breakfast_menu>

XSL样式表:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

- <html xsl:version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="

- <span style="font-style:italic">(<xsl:value-of select="calories" />calories per serving)</span></div></xsl:for-each></body></html>
查看结果。
下面是此
XML文件的一个片断。 第二行，<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="simple.xsl"?>，把这个
XML文件链接到XSL文件：
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="simple.xsl"?>
<breakfast_menu><food><name>Belgian Waffles</name><price>$5.95</price><description>two of our famous Belgian Waffles</description><calories>650</calories></food>
</breakfast_menu>
