I've found a neat trick, if I declare...

Code:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="bla.css">

....in the top of an xml file I can then use a style sheet with the xml attributes as styles.

To explain, here is the xml....

Code:
<title>
  hello worm
</title>

here is the bla.css

Code:
title{
   font-size:14px;
}

Works wonderfully, problem is, the style sheet that is being used for the project has illegal syntax for xml, as in...

Code:
#title{
   font-size:14px;
}

or

.title{
   font-size:14px;
}

I get error messages if I try and format xml like...

Code:
<#title>
  Hello worm
</#title>

or

<.title>
  Hello worm
</.title>

Question, are those "#"'s and "."'s ( before the "title" description )really necessary in the style sheet?

Here's me thinking it would be a quick qestion

Um, found a workaround, adding a second selecter to the stylesheet....

Code:
#title,title{
   font-size:14px;
}

If the XML validates against a DTD, and one of the attributes is specified as type ID, then the ID selector (#) should work.

There is, however, no standard way of making the class selector (.) work; the CSS parser has to Just Know that a given doctype uses classes.
