The "simple API for XSL" is the SAX filter API. > For once, I agree 100% with Paul. I'm quite happy with SAX as an API for transmitting all kinds of XML information, including XSL information. Tools for converting SAX to a DOM tree (Docuverse DOM - http://www.docuverse.com/domsdk/index.html) and back again (DOM parser, at http://www.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/) are readily available. The SAX filter model is a great way (I think) to make changes to XML documents using modular tools (including XSL tools, like XT) at low cost. Folks may want to take a look at the SAX 1.1 (now called ModSAX?) discussions on the xml-dev list, if you have a case for additional needed functionality.
