XSL-FO Development (2 days)

LFO-22: Fixed price XSL-FO training delivered on your site at any UK location.

Designed as a follow on from any of the XSL-FO Foundation, XML Foundation or XSLT Foundation courses, this is a highly practical training course for developers who need to use XSL Formatting Objects to produce sophisticated screen or print output from XML source data.

Suggested Prerequisites

Basic XML, XPath and XSLT experience is assumed. Those with some background in programming/scripting (any language) would best assimilate the concepts presented. Some exposure to (X)HTML, CSS and/or traditional print and design concepts would be beneficial though this is not essential. Ideally, attendees should begin this course with either the skill set of, or having completed any of, the XSL-FO Foundation, XML Foundation or XSLT Foundation courses.
