XSLT for not so Dummies
-
I have a client evaluation on Tuesday morning, for a large and exciting looking project. One of the tools included in the job description is XSLT. I would like to do some serious brushing up on XSLT this weekend and would like some book and other resource recommendations. I last got just my fingertips dirty writing basic XML to HTML table transforms back in about 2001. Oh man, so much brushing up etc. this weekend. MVC, Elmah, Unity, and XSLT. Lucky Monday is Women's Day, a public holiday.

I recently used XSLT to create a documentation system. I had never used it before, but W3Schools certainly came through for me. I now have the thing replacing single option drop downs with buttons blah blah blah. My point is, I did this in a day, so I think W3Schools got me brushed up pretty quickly.

Just go through XSLT programmers reference by micheal kay. (chapter 4,5,7) this will hardly take you 2-3 hours and use w3schools for initial brushing for 15 minutes i think would suffice.

I third W3schools. And I carry the XSLT Pocket Reference[^] with me.

I have been doing XSLT transforms for the last 6 months, I HIGHLY recommend MSFT: XML pocket consultant[^] It has everything you need from the basics, but is written with "small" examples so it makes it easier to extrapolate Complex patterns and scenarios, It's very Good.
I'd blame it on the Brain farts.. But let's be honest, it really is more like a Methane factory between my ears some days then it is anything else...

I'm gonna dissent and say that W3Schools is best avoided. Regardless of what it is you're trying to brush up on. Half-baked and ad-heavy. ZVON is pretty decent, however.
I second the vote for ZVON. Also check out XmlPitstop. They list several common scenarios.

I second the motion to get the WROX programmer's reference by Michael Kay.

Haven't done much XSLT in a few years, but for about 5 years I was doing a lot of it and Michael Kay's book has always been my bible. Helped me really understand it all, great samples for real problems and a great reference as well.
