<p>If you need help with the XSLT language itself, here are a number of
|
|
useful resources:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>I strongly suggest to subscribe to <a href="http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list">XSL-list</a>, check <a href="http://www.biglist.com/lists/xsl-list/archives/">the XSL-list
|
|
archives</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The <a href="http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/xslfaq.html">XSL FAQ</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>The <a href="http://www.nwalsh.com/docs/tutorials/xsl/xsl/slides.html">tutorial</a>
|
|
written by Paul Grosso and Norman Walsh is a very good on-line
|
|
introdution to the language.</li>
|
|
<li>The <a href="http://www.zvon.org/xxl/XSLTutorial/Books/Book1/index.html">only
|
|
Zvon XSLT tutorial</a> details a lot of constructs with examples.</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<a href="http://www.jenitennison.com/xslt/index.html">Jeni Tennison's
|
|
XSLT</a> pages provide links to a lot of answers</li>
|
|
<li>the <a href="http://incrementaldevelopment.com/xsltrick/">Gallery of
|
|
XSLT Tricks</a> provides non-standard use case of XSLT</li>
|
|
<li>And I suggest to buy Michael Kay "XSLT Programmer's Reference" book
|
|
published by <a href="http://www.wrox.com/">Wrox</a> if you plan to work
|
|
seriously with XSLT in the future.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Well, bugs or missing features are always possible, and I will make a
|
|
point of fixing them in a timely fashion. The best way to report a bug is to
|
|
use the <a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxslt">Gnome
|
|
bug tracking database</a> (make sure to use the "libxslt" module name). I
|
|
look at reports there regularly and it's good to have a reminder when a bug
|
|
is still open. Be sure to specify that the bug is for the package libxslt.</p>
|
|
<p>There is also a mailing-list <a href="mailto:xslt@gnome.org">xslt@gnome.org</a> for libxslt, with an <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">on-line archive</a>. To subscribe
|
|
to this list, please visit the <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xslt">associated Web</a> page
|
|
and follow the instructions.</p>
|
|
<p>Alternatively, you can just send the bug to the <a href="mailto:xslt@gnome.org">xslt@gnome.org</a> list, if it's really libxslt
|
|
related I will approve it.. Please do not send me mail directly especially
|
|
for portability problem, it makes things really harder to track and in some
|
|
cases I'm not the best person to answer a given question, ask the list
|
|
instead. <strong>Do not send code, I won't debug it</strong> (but patches are
|
|
really appreciated!).</p>
|
|
<p>Check the following too before posting:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>make sure you are <a href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/">using a recent
|
|
version</a>, and that the problem still shows up in those</li>
|
|
<li>check the <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">list
|
|
archives</a> to see if the problem was reported already, in this case
|
|
there is probably a fix available, similarly check the <a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxslt">registered
|
|
open bugs</a>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>make sure you can reproduce the bug with xsltproc, a very useful thing
|
|
to do is run the transformation with -v argument and redirect the
|
|
standard error to a file, then search in this file for the transformation
|
|
logs just preceding the possible problem</li>
|
|
<li>Please send the command showing the error as well as the input and
|
|
stylesheet (as an attachment)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Of course, bugs reports with a suggested patch for fixing them will
|
|
probably be processed faster.</p>
|
|
<p>If you're looking for help, a quick look at <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xslt/">the list archive</a> may actually
|
|
provide the answer, I usually send source samples when answering libxslt
|
|
usage questions. The <a href="html/libxslt-lib.html#LIBXSLT-LIB">auto-generated documentation</a> is
|
|
not as polished as I would like (I need to learn more about Docbook), but
|
|
it's a good starting point.</p>
