 Printing XML: Why CSS Is Better than XSL
Subject: the alert reader
Date: 2005-01-20 10:30:13
From: bryan rasmussen

'As the alert reader will already have inferred, the statement lists the heights of many different paper sizes. As such, it is interesting reading. However, we do not understand why this list belongs in a stylesheet. CSS provides a simple and elegant alternative by naming the different sizes in the specification rather than in each stylesheet.'


from that statement the alert reader has to infer that either you know nothing about the abomination of xsl-fo, or you're being less than truthful. i agree that css styling is far superior to styling print than xsl-fo's have all the attributes in the element solution. but that's a bad design on xsl-fo's part, you don't seem to be willing to address that.
