Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL)
A language defined in a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) specification that expresses how to format, lay out, and paginate data in a presentation medium such as a window in a web browser or a page in the printed document. XSL uses two processes: transformation and formatting. Using two processes supports differentiating between the structure of the source tree and the structure of the result tree. XSL typically derives from Extensible Markup Language (XML).
