XML->HTML

[Rich Bowen <rb...@rcbowen.com>]

Now that Mozilla is refusing to display XML, I tried the conversion
processe.

Is it *supposed* to convert all the docs all over again? That seems
undesirable.

The 'site' cvs repository has a different conversion process. Is there
any chance we can all agree on something, and not have to remember
several different ways to do this?

I know it is a little late to start bitching about this, but I've been
just using Mozilla as an xml viewer up til now.

It quit working when I upgraded past .9.7

I'm using build.sh

OK, it did this the first time, but appears to have updated only the
time stamps. There were no diffs. We seem to be ok. Sorry for the false
alarm.

I'd really like to figure out why this isn't working in Mozilla.  Is it 
just the apache docs, or is mozilla not working at all for xslt at the 
moment?  Personally, I've had near zero success with it for a long time.

Which method are you using?  The "recommended" technique is build.sh, 
which calls ant.  It should not regenerate docs that don't change.

site and httpd-site use anakia, while the docs use xslt.  I am 
relatively transformation-agnostic.  I'm sure the existing stuff could 
be implimented in anakia, but then you would lose the ability to preview 
in browsers (which still works, at least, in IE6).  I have no objections 
to anyone working to improve the transformation system, just as long as 
we don't move backwards.

Feel free to bitch.  Just do it constructively ;-)
