Is XPath much more efficient as compared to DOM and SAX?
I need to parse an xml string and find values of specific text nodes, attribute values etc. I'm doing this in javascript and was using the DOMParser class for the same.

Some background: I have an database that I want to use linq-to-sql to update through a C# application. One of the columns in this table has an XML datatype.

Elegant examples of xslt?
After a long learning loop via XAML, I've returned to HTML and javascript, and realised that the concept of declarative code - in terms of rules for transformation - is an incredibly powerful concept.
