We are using XML successfully to mark our information according to our vocabularies instead of giving the control to the product vendors we are taking the whole responsibility of our information, the vendors lock our information into their proprietary schemes to keep us holding to their solutions and technology the 2 W3C recommendations XXSL and X Path meet the need of transferring the in the information. These two provide very powerful implementation of a tree oriented transformation language for transforming instances of XML using one
XSLT is a standard created by World Wide Web Consortium, designed for creating formatting structures that allow for the interpretation and modification of XML elements.eXtensible Stylesheet Language, or XSL was created similarly to XML. After submission to W3C and several working drafts, it was released in 2000. It's goals are mainly similar with XML, more specifically aiming for a quick designing process, being transparent to users and developers, easy to use, with as few as possible optional features and being suitable for use over the
Now that we are successfully using XML to mark up our information according to our own vocabularies, we are taking control and responsibility for our information, instead of abdicating such control to product vendors. These vendors would rather lock our information into their proprietary schemes to keep us beholden to their solutions and technology.But the flexibility inherent in the power given to each of us to develop our own vocabularies, and for industry associations, e-commerce consortia, and the W3C to develop their own vocabularies, presents the
XSLT allows you to create formatting structures which interpret and modify the existing XML elements. Learn about the syntax of XSLT elements, how the namespace attribute differs depending on the browser in use, and how to transform original XML elements.
XSL or eXtensible Stylesheet Language began life in much the same way as XML -- as a submission to the W3C. The W3C quickly released several working drafts before the final working draft was released in 2000. It shared some common design goals with XML, namely:
A quick design
Abstract
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a language for describing the rendering of HTML and XML documents on screen, on paper, in speech, etc. To color elements in a document, it uses color related properties and respective values. This specification describes the properties and values that are proposed for CSS level 3. It includes and extends them from properties and values of CSS level 2.
Status of This Document
This specification is one of the "modules" for the upcoming CSS level 3 (CSS3) specification. It not only describes the color related
Abstract
This CSS3 Module describes how to insert and move content around a document, in order to create footnotes, endnotes, section notes. Inserted content can also introduce counters and strings, which can be used for running headers and footers, section numbering, and lists. Finally, techniques for declaring replaced images, as well as scaling and cropping them using CSS, are described.
Status of this document
This is a working draft of a CSS level 3 module. It aspires to eventually become a CSS3 Recommendation.

This article provides a brief tour through some of the new features in XPath 2.0. It assumes that you already have a basic understanding of XPath 1.0, and that you've most likely used it in the context of XSLT. It is by no means an exhaustive overview but merely points out some of the most noteworthy features.
Relationship between XPath 1.0 and XPath 2.0
Both the XPath 1.0 recommendation and the latest XPath 2.0 working draft say that "XPath is a language for addressing parts of an XML document". This was a fairly appropriate characterization of
