Can anyone recommend a good overall XSL reference book?
My preferred style is a functionality walk-through with practical usage
examples.
Jeni Tennison's books both take this approach, I believe, as does Zarella
Rendon's. Note Jeni has two, an insanely brilliant one "On the Edge" (could
have been called "doing the unthinkable with XSLT") and a more approachable
"Beginning XSLT". Zarella's covers the language end to end, I think. Bob
DuCharme's is also good. We are fortunate to have so many people around who
can write such a book (by no means all the experts post frequently to this
list).
Some have liked Doug Tidwell's book from O'Reilly, but that's threaded more
on a particular scenario, an exposure to XSLT rather than a reference as such.
You will find Mike Kay's book to be the canonical reference, also well
worth having if you can get it.
