in thread Model-View-Controller: Template Toolkit vs. XSLT

Not if you want/need control over the whitespace. And if you want to output XML-like, but not XML-compliant structures, like, say, Apache config files, the whole thing becomes even uglier.

    It may become uglier, but that is different than saying it's not possible. I dislike XSLT. I think that it is clunky and overly verbose, and my brain doesn't grok it quickly. But that doesn't mean that I can't use it to output non-XML, control whitespace or output XML-like but not XML-compliant structures. I'm just drawing a distinction between a PITA and not possible {grin}.
