Click the Align button in Komodo's Help Browser to resize the Komodo workspace and the Help Browser for side-by-side viewing.

Before You Start

This tutorial assumes...

  • ...that you are running the tutorial locally from within the Komodo Help Browser. While it can be read online, the interactive functions (such as resizing the workspace and creating sample projects) are only accessible within the Komodo Help Browser.
  • ...that you are interested in XSLT. You don't need to have previous knowledge of XSLT; the tutorial will walk you through a simple program and suggest some resources for further information.

XSLT Tutorial Scenario

In the Perl Tutorial, you used a Perl program to convert a text file containing exported email messages to an XML file. In this tutorial, you'll use XSLT to convert the XML file to HTML. Note that you do not need to complete the Perl Tutorial before doing the XSLT Tutorial. Each tutorial can be completed independently. In this tutorial you will:

  1. Open the XSLT Tutorial Project and associated files.
  2. Analyze mailexport.xml the XSLT program included in the XSLT Tutorial Project.
  3. Generate the HTML output by running the transformation.
  4. Debug the program using the Komodo debugger.
