New XT Release - August 13, 1999


Date:     Sat, 14 Aug 1999 07:13:59 +0700
From:     James Clark <jjc@jclark.com>
To:       XSL-List <xsl-list@mulberrytech.com>
Subject:  New XT release

A new release of XT is now available. See:

     http://www.jclark.com/xml/xt.html

for more information. This implements the 19980813 version of XSLT and XPath.

There is significant new functionality in this release: the substring and string-length functions are implemented; the document function, which allows multiple input documents, is implemented; the unparsed-entity-uri function, which supports input documents using unparsed (NDATA) entities, is implemented; the current function (similar to the context function in IE5) is implemented; attribute sets are implemented; the text output method, which allows non-XML output in a standard way, is implemented; defaulting of the output method is implemented; this uses the html output method automatically if the document element is html; the disable-output-escaping attribute, which allows the disabling of the automatic escaping of <>& characters on output, is implemented; the encoding attribute on xsl:output is implemented for the html and text output methods; a servlet wrapper is provided; the API allows stylesheets to be cached (the servlet wrapper exploits this); top-level parameters can be passed using the query string (when running as an HTTP servlet) or using the command-line; support for multiple output documents is provided by an extension element.
