I've dabbled a little bit with xml/xslt. XML is easy, no problems there. XSLT is a little weird, but I'm learning.
Anywho, my question is this. To me, XSLT is similar to an html file with embedded php in it.
What are the benefits of an XSLT file over an html file with embedded php (or a jsp page or asp)? They both yeild the same results. I feel like using XSLT adds an extra step to the whole process, since you have to capture the XSLT output and then send it to a web browser.
Thanks for the input!
ps
Any good examples/tutorials out there about using xml/xslt to drive a website using php or jsp. I don't know asp? thanks again.
