Hi Gary:
A while ago (probably over a year) I tested PHP and XSLT using
Sablotron. At the time Sablotron was a little immature but I think is
better now. I was a bit difficult to get working because you cannot use
the RPM version of PHP. If my memory serves me well, I had to recompile
the source in order to include libxml and Sablotron libraries.
However, if I can make a suggestion, I would recommend Cocoon from
Apache (http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/). I think Cocoon is a more scalable
solution. It uses Xerces and Xalan for parsing XML and XSLT. I understand
that you can plug in your own parser if necessary.
I have recently been hooked on Cocoon. I have used it to pull RSS files
from various technical newsites
(http://www.eccnet.com:8080/cocoon/linuxtoday).
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I really like to very much like to know if anyone is working successfully
with XSLT and PHP in some way and if so how they think to best approach the
problems?
I am actually attempting to switching over to PHP linux from Jscript
MicrosoftMSXML - Initiallly I have been having a lot problems with Sablotron
due to a large amount of inheretance in the stylesheets, id functions and
several other bits and pieces!
Things going through my mind!! I am wondering if libxml or something else
would lessen these problems! Or, whether there is a way I can use a Java
processor like Xalan or something else from the PHP... can anyone be so kind
as to enlighten me on this?
Thanks in advance for any pointers or suggestions
Gary
