XSLT - On the Server Side
Since not all browsers support XSLT, another solution is to perform the XML-to-XHTML transformation on the server.
Cross-Browser Solution
In previous chapters, we explained how to use XSLT in the browser to transform XML into XHTML. We created a JavaScript snippet that uses an XML parser to perform the transformation. However, the JavaScript solution will not work in browsers lacking an XML parser.
To make XML data compatible with any type of browser, we must transform the XML document on the server and then send it back to the browser as XHTML.
This is another advantage of XSLT. One of XSLT’s design goals is to enable data transformation from one format to another on the server, returning readable data to all types of browsers.
XML File and XSLT File
Consider this XML document shown in earlier chapters:
Empire Burlesque
Bob Dylan
USA
Columbia
10.90
1985
.
.
View the XML file.
And its accompanying XSL stylesheet:
My CD Collection
View the XSL file.
Note that this XML file does not contain a reference to the XSL file.
Important: This means the XML file can be transformed using multiple different XSL stylesheets.
Transforming XML to XHTML on the Server
Below is the source code for transforming an XML file into XHTML on the server:
Using PHP code for transformation:
load('cdcatalog.xml');
// Load XSL file
$xsl = new DOMDocument;
$xsl->load('cdcatalog.xsl');
// Set up transformer
$proc = new XSLTProcessor;
// Import XSL rules
$proc->importStyleSheet($xsl);
echo $proc->transformToXML($xml);
?>
Tip: If you’re unfamiliar with writing PHP, you can learn from our PHP Tutorial.
Using ASP code for transformation:

The first block of code creates an instance of Microsoft’s XML parser (XMLDOM) and loads the XML file into memory. The second block creates another instance of the parser and loads the XSL file into memory. The final line transforms the XML document using the XSL document and sends the resulting XHTML to your browser. Great!
How it works.
