XSLT Elements Reference

prev next

The XSLT elements from the W3C Recommendation (XSLT Version 1.0).


XSLT Elements

The links in the "Element" column point to attributes and more useful information about each specific element.

  • N: indicates the earliest version of Netscape that supports the tag
  • IE: indicates the earliest version of Internet Explorer that supports the tag

Note: Elements supported in IE 5 may have NON-standard behavior, because IE 5 was released before XSLT became an official W3C Recommendation.
