I have some XSL that is used to read an XML file in a website and to pupulate a web form. Is their an XSL command that will bold the XML text that is read?
The XML has a tag named <FirstName> that represents a persons first name. So that is the text I need bolded using XSL.

example from xml file:
<FirstName>Mike Poppel</FirstName>
<Age>24</Age>
<Height>5'-9"</Height>

XSL is a transformation language.

If you are transforming to HTML, then you can make the text
bold by wrapping the text in <B></B>.

But XSL itself doesn't have a visual representation; it's a
programming language.

Thank you for the response. Pardon me, my mistake. I am using XSLT, not XSL. So based upon this do you have a different answer to my post?
I am not getting anywhere with fixing this problem, so if you can help me out, I would appreciate it.

Sorry, same answer. XSLT doesn't do bold; only the
output format would do bold. Are you writing HTML
with your XSLT?

I appreciate your help! thank you.
I am using XSLT to query an XML file. My programming language is C# with asp.net. I am assuming that once the XSLT queries the XML then everything is eventually rendered as HTML or XHTML.
Since XSL does not do bold. Do you have any ideas on how I might be ablt to bold the text; taking into consideration that I am using XSLT and XML?

If it is eventually rendered as HTML, just wrap the text
you want in bold with <B> </B>.

XSLT is the programming language. It's the output that
would be bold.
