and just for extra reference, this is what they're asking of me

You will be writing an XSLT document to transform your XML recipe pages from Assignment 1 into XHTML. The XHTML that is generated should fit in with the style of the rest of your website (ie similar formatting, colors, etc). You will need to use CSS in your generated XHTML.

Note that all your XML recipe pages have the same tags and DTD and therefore they can all use the same XSLT document. This means you should only make 1 XSLT file. The XSLT should have the following;
A heading which mentions the category you used for your recipe pages in Assignment 1 (entree, dessert, snacks)
List of all the recipes, sorted alphabetically by main ingredient and including the following.
The main ingredient
Link to the website/s (if any) related to the main ingredient.
An image of the dish.
All extra data that you stored for each recipe, such as other ingredients, preparation, ...
All these data must be collected from the XML person pages.
Any other information that is in your XML files.

thanks again guys, hope someone can help.
