Hi all. I have a DocBook source[1] that I am processing into XHTML using the
DocBook XSL[2] toolchain. That is, XSLT. I'm not doing a huge amount of
customization on top of the default setup, either. Right now, I'm using the
standard XSLT Java toolchain; Xalan, Xerces, XIncluder, and all of the
various other Apache projects[3]. The problem is, well, it's Java, which
means the classpaths and build environment and such break if I so much as
sneeze at the wrong time. I'd love to be able to replace it with PHP's XSL
parser[4], since I actually know PHP and its chances of breaking on every
other Tuesday are slimmer, but I don't know if it has all of the
functionality I'd need.
Specifically, I need multi-file output and support for <xinclude: />
directives. Right now I'm using the Xalan multi-file output extensions, but
I'm happy to switch to something else if it means eliminating the huge gobs
of touchy Javascript I have.
Does anyone know if that's doable with PHP's XSLT support (circa PHP 5.2, I
run the server so can install whatever I need)? Has anyone tried doing this
before? It's all offline processing, so performance isn't a huge issue.
Thanks.
