XSLT as an analytical tool box
- To infer facts about text, XSLT can exploit either
- markup, or
- simple string-handling functions of XPath standard
- contains(DIV, "natural") returns “true” if (the first) child node DIV contains string "natural"
- string-before(string1,string2), string-after(string1,string2)
- etc.
- These rudimentary functions can (should) be extended
- Could be provided through an XML browser/XSL editor combination
