[Phpgroupware-developers] My new XSL Template class

[Dan Kuykendall]

This is the XSL Template class I have been talking about to a few 
people. Now that I have finally gotten the code out of my head and only 
file I wanted to get some eyeballs on it.

Basicly just unzip this into a dir under your webroot. You will need 
PHP's XSLT support enabled for this to work at all.

The idea is that this will replace our use of PHPLIB's tpl based 
template system. XSL can handle most if the UI layer all on its own with 
this template class. In phpGW the UI layer would basicly just make the 
request to the bo class, decide which xsl files are needed and do 
template->add_file() for them. Then it would take the return data from 
the bo and pump it into template->set_var().

The template class will auto convert these arrays into XML, will merge 
all the required XSL files into a single xslresult and will then use 
PHP's XSLT to convert it into HTML.

XSL can do all the loops thru the data to generate the interface we are 
used to.

My goal is to start becoming forward compatible with where the industry 
is moving. XSL is a great technology and can get us pushed into the XML 
world and move our code to work better in the web services sector.
