     This PHP extension provides a processor independent API to XSLT
     transformations. Currently this extension only supports the Sablotron
     library from the Ginger Alliance. Support is planned for other 
     libraries, such as the Xalan library or the libxslt library.

    <para>
     XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) Transformations) is a
     language for transforming XML documents into other XML documents.
     It is a standard defined by The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
     Information about XSLT and related technologies can be
     found at <ulink url="&url.xslt;">&url.xslt;</ulink>.

    <note>
     <simpara>
      This extension is different than the sablotron extension distributed with
      versions of PHP prior to PHP 4.1, currently only the new XSLT extension in 
      PHP 4.1 is supported. If you need support for the old extension, please ask
      your questions on the PHP mailing lists.

     This extension uses <productname>Sablotron</productname>
     and <productname>expat</productname>, which can both be
     found at <ulink
     url="&url.sablotron;">&url.sablotron;</ulink>. Binaries
     are provided as well as source.

     On UNIX, run <command>configure</command> with the
     <link linkend="install.configure.enable-xslt">--enable-xslt</link>
     <link linkend="install.configure.with-xslt-sablot">--with-xslt-sablot</link>
     options. The <productname>Sablotron</productname>
     library should be installed somewhere your compiler can find it.
    </para>
    <para>
     Make sure you have the same libraries linked to the
     <productname>Sablotron</productname> library as those, which are linked
     with php. The configuration options:
     <link linkend="install.configure.with-expat-dir">--with-expat-dir</link>
     <link linkend="install.configure.with-iconv-dir">--with-iconv-dir</link>
     are there to help you specify them. When asking for support, always
     mention these directives, and whether there are other versions of those
     libraries installed on your system somewhere. Naturally, provide all the
     version numbers.

     <title>JavaScript E-XSLT support</title>
     <simpara>
      If you compiled <productname>Sablotron</productname> with JavaScript
      support, you must specify the option:
      <link linkend="install.configure.with-sablot-js">--with-sablot-js</link>.
