Questions tagged [xslt-1.0]

Use this tag for questions specific to XSL Transformations version 1.0 and no other version.

W3C Recommendations:

If you are looking for help on using a particular XSLT instruction or XPath function or expression it is a good idea to check the relevant spec sections first and then to explain in your question in what way, using the information from the spec, you couldn't solve your problem; so here is a list of the various sections:
