Actually, I'd consider the "generate sources from domain profile" pattern (if I give that name to the situation I described) somewhat different than the document generation case, which I'd consider more.... normal (for lack of a better word). But perhaps the field is converging to the extent that one can no longer draw an absolute distinction? Converging on an emanent truth of markup: that any character-based data representation may profitably be considered a document. A source-code file is merely a document with particularly rigorous, repetitive and error-prone syntactic and grammatical requirements. The application of XSLT to code generation is perfectly analagous to its application over *documents*. Let markup manage the semantic domain and allow stylesheets to manage syntactic, grammatical or formatting details. Mike XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
