XML to HTML text editor

Summary This XSL allows online editing of existing XML via a naming convention on the elements.

Any XML can be used. A CGI program is required as the action of the form to alter the XML on the server. Elements are seperated with dots, an underscore and their number. Attributes are prefixed with a dash instead of a dot.
