Displaying your XML Files with CSS?

[ben2ong2]

It is possible to use CSS to format an XML document.
Below is an example of how to use a CSS style sheet to format an XML document:
Take a look at this XML file: The CD catalog
Then look at this style sheet: The CSS file
Finally, view: The CD catalog formatted with the CSS file
Below is a fraction of the XML file. The second line, <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="cd_catalog.css"?>, links the XML file to the CSS file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="cd_catalog.css"?><CATALOG>  <CD>    <TITLE>Empire Burlesque</TITLE>    <ARTIST>Bob Dylan</ARTIST>    <COUNTRY>USA</COUNTRY>    <COMPANY>Columbia</COMPANY>    <PRICE>10.90</PRICE>    <YEAR>1985</YEAR>  </CD>  <CD>    <TITLE>Hide your heart</TITLE>    <ARTIST>Bonnie Tyler</ARTIST>    <COUNTRY>UK</COUNTRY>    <COMPANY>CBS Records</COMPANY>    <PRICE>9.90</PRICE>    <YEAR>1988</YEAR>  </CD>....</CATALOG>   
Note: Formatting XML with CSS is NOT the future of how to style XML documents. XML document should be styled by using the W3C's XSL standard!
