DocBook. It is used to create presentations (slides, foils, whatever
you call them) in HTML or print.</p><p>Presentations are by nature visual and the Slides stylesheets
provide a wide range of options to control how the transformation from
XML to HTML is performed.</p><p>This document is a first attempt at describing what some of
these options are and how to use them.</p><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="ch.stylesheet"></a>Choose a Stylesheet</h2></div></div></div><p>At the highest level, you can choose one of five stylesheets:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p><code class="filename">slides.xsl</code> produces basic slides in HTML, one page
per slide.
</p></li><li><p><code class="filename">frames.xsl</code> produces slides in HTML using frames.
</p></li><li><p><code class="filename">tables.xsl</code> produces slides in HTML using tables, one page
per slide.
</p></li><li><p><code class="filename">w3c.xsl</code> produces basic slides in HTML, one
page per slide, using a navigation style similar to that of most W3C
talks.
</p></li><li><p><code class="filename">fo-plain.xsl</code> produces basic slides, one
page per slide, for print using XSL Formatting Objects.

to assure that these features work across different browsers on different platforms,
