powerful tool to build HTML pages that can be modified to provide any information
extracted from a COLLADA document.
It is also possible to add the reference to the XLST directly in the COLLADA
document, which will have no impact on the content and how it is loaded by ap-
plications, but it will be used by web browsers to display the processed document
rather than the raw XML data when opening a COLLADA document with a web
browser. Simply add the line
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="list-
images.xslt"?>
right after the
{<?xml version="1.0"?>verb
line in a COL-
LADA document, and it will show the XSL output in Mozilla
