OpenIDMoveably Type with XSLT
Kevin Davis has set up an impressive demonstration of the power of Moveable Type templates when combined with browser-side XSLT transformations. He’s set up MT to output an XML document containing just his entries (similar to an RSS feed), along with a link to an XSLT stylesheet that causes Mozilla and IE 6 to transform the entry and render it as XHTML.
I went the other route with MT and XSLT. My MT spits out XSP pages (XML + tablibs). The site sits underneath Axkit XML App Server that does the server side transformations to text, xhtml, or even PDF/WAP if I needed to by adding other stylesheets.
It's proven to be a life saver when I redesigned the site and only had to change a file ot two instead of all the MT templates.
