ANN: Pretty XML Tree Viewer

In February 2001, Jeni Tennison and I wrote the ASCII XML Tree Viewer,
an XSLT stylesheet that produces a plain text representation of an XML
document's XPath/XSLT node structure, incorporating 'ASCII art' styles
to show the node relationships.

I have just now (October 2001) produced a new version that produces
very similar output, but with colorful, concise HTML and CSS1
formatting. I am very pleased with the results, at least when viewed
in HTML+CSS1 capable browsers.

This version also features some non-CSS improvements that I intend to
incorporate in the ASCII version eventually.

The intended audience for this is beginners needing help with
XPath/XSLT model visualization, as well as advanced XML application
developers. (It is quite handy for debugging an XSLT processor
implementation, for example).

Please see

  http://skew.org/xml/stylesheets/treeview/html/

for the XSLT and CSS stylesheets, plus sample output.

Let me know if there are any bugs or room for improvement. Thanks.
