| | 1 | = Sample Course Outline: XSLT 1.0 and XPath 1.0 = |
| | 2 | |
| | 3 | Provides a grounding in all the features of the XSLT 1.0 and |
| | 4 | XPath 1.0 Recommendations. |
| | 5 | |
| | 6 | This course suits someone who is familiar with XML but is new to XSLT |
| | 7 | and XPath. |
| | 8 | |
| | 9 | By the end of the course, the participants will: |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | - Understand XPath location paths and expressions |
| | 12 | - Be able to write XSLT stylesheets |
| | 13 | - Be familiar with writing stylesheets |
| | 14 | |
| | 15 | The course includes a number of exercises based on your documents. Your documents are used in XPath examples and exercises, and the participants |
| | 16 | will build up one or more stylesheets for transforming your documents. |
