Working with Stylesheets - Getting Started

This section helps you get started working with XSLT stylesheets. To focus on stylesheets that generate HTML, see Stylesheets That Generate HTML - Getting Started. To focus on stylesheets that map XML to XML, see Using the XSLT Mapper - Getting Started.

Except for the first topic, each of the following topics contains instructions for working with a sample XSLT stylesheet. You should perform the steps in each topic before you move on to the next topic. After the first topic, some steps depend on actions you performed in a previous topic.
