hi,
We are developing a large documentation for our courses at school that 
could be available online.
We are planning to have all our data in xml, and we were suggested to

But i find we can directly use xml tags in JSP pages for transfermation 
into html using xslt .
Can some explaine me clearly y, our need requires for a publishing 
framework like cocoon and how is it goin na help our development
 
thanks

I thought you can also see Apache Forrest - http://xml.apache.org/forrest
If you just want to publish documentation. Forrest is based on Cocoon and
is a documentation framework.

Not only HTML, also WML, PDF, RTF, OpenOffice.org formats, etc.

Cocoon requieres Java, and Servlet container (maybe tomcat) and that is all.
