You don't necessarily, though you can. write a template, and call it by
name. It's just another normal bit of presentation. As far as XSL is
concerned, the contents of < script > is just cdata.

With good references, I was able to pick up enough to build a complex page
in one day. it is _all_about_ the quality of your reference material, but it
is certainly possible.

as soon as you understand the aproach xslt takes, the syntax makes fairly
good sense, and the processing model is logical.

have a look at the (ehrm) xslt that actualy works, that I attached earlier.
