librarian trading cards in intro to xml

[deborah]

For an XML class I'm teaching to library and technology staff tomorrow, I've written a tiny XML trading card template. I'm not going over the XSLT and CSS in class -- this is an XML-only class -- but in theory they could be used as teaching tools as well. (They're both non-standard, though; the CSS because of its absolute positioning throughout and the XSLT for its simplicity.)

Anyway, I'm creative commons licensing the files and posting them for anyone else who'd like to use them. Oh, and here's my sample card.

The files.

Oh, I get you. :) I've just never managed to get relative positioning to work right -- I tend to use a combination of absolute (for sidebars) and plain ol' static. Something there is in my brain that does not grok position:relative...
