Tip: Twisting XML with XSLT 2.0 (IBM developerWorks)

Jack Herrington works with XSLT 2.0 on IBM developerWorks. "The XML story has two sides: data creators and data consumers. XSL typically falls on the consumer side of the equation, and all too often the format of the data is fixed well before a template gets to it. Take a list of books, for example. You might have an XML file with a list sorted by title, but what if you want the list to be sorted by author, or you just want to display the distinct author names? Can XSL do that?"
