W3C Xsl
# W3C XSL Activities
* * *
The W3C began developing XSL because there was a need for an XML-based stylesheet language.
The XSL language consists of three parts: XSLT, XPath, and XSL Formatting Objects.

### XSL-FO (XSL Formatting Objects)
XSL Formatting Objects is a vocabulary that defines formatting semantics. Formatting refers to the process of transforming the output of XSL into a form suitable for readers or listeners. Although there is no standalone W3C document specifically for XSL Formatting Objects, related descriptions can be found in the XSL 1.0 Recommendation.
