I have to agree on this one. Frankly, I found XSLT itself to be fairly
easy to learn, once I got into it. And thinking declaritively in
general wasn't a problem. It's figuring out how to pull data out
properly that is the problem, vis, XPath. I HATE XPath. :-) I don't
know how universal this is, but XPath is always the part of any XSLT
script that gives me the most hassle, every single time.
People have found the XPath Visualizer to be an effective and enjoyable
XPath learning tool. Give it a try.
