Of course, these folks aren't doing complex transformations. But they are
people, who for one reason or another, have been given XML to deal with, and
just want to produce a nice HTML page or convert to a different XML format.
I've shown these folks just three elements, wrapped in a single <xsl:template
match="/">:
1. xsl:value-of
2. xsl:choose
3. xsl:for-each
I'm surprised you say non-traditional programmers. These are the same
three statements that proliferate the code of traditional (but non
XSLT) programmers.
You could almost describe them as XSLT's procedural subset.
