I don't agree with the subject line:-)
Oh, you do now, well that's great! Thanks for letting me know.
It's never too late to read a spec by the way :-) :-)
Let me tickle a bit: you don't agree with the subject line, but
how do you suppose one could use XSLT to execute a transaction
in an information system? By definition this is using side-
effects. XML driven JDBC calls through XSLT is where I find the
best use of XSLT right now (I'm not a web-designer, but a
passionate XSLT user.)
