XSL and CSS Stylesheets
"Why two Style Sheet languages? - The fact that W3C has started developing
XSL in addition to CSS has caused some confusion. Why develop a second style
sheet language when implementors haven't even finished the first one? . . . The
unique features are that CSS can be used to style HTML documents. XSL, on the
other hand, is able to tranform documents. For example, XSL can be used to
transform XML data into HTML/CSS documents on the Web server. This way, the two
languages complement each other and can be used together. Both languages can be
used to style XML documents. CSS and XSL will use the same underlying
formatting model and designers will therefore have access to the same
formatting features in both languages. W3C will work hard to ensure that
interoperable implementations of the formatting model is available." See
also "Using XSL and CSS Together," by Håkon Lie and Bert Bos. [from
the W3C 'Style' Page]
