Linda van den Brink pointed him to the Microsoft converter: >Microsoft has a tool to convert old stylesheets that follow their >implementation of XSL to the new version of XSLT. I haven't tried it, but it >sounds like you can use it. See >http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/webtechnology/xml/xsltconv.asp But it doesn't quite do the whole job. First, Microsoft states up front that it only converts to the subset of the spec that the preview release supports. Second, I've found some spots where it doesn't do quite what you expect. The majority of these concern syntax that the old implementation accepted even when it shouldn't (for example: < xsl:if select="xxx"> -- should be ... test="xxx">). When I corrected these cases before running the converter most of the problems went away. My very rough estimate is that the converter does about 90% of the work you need to do. Which is a big help.
