Since it can include a series of templates, I thought it was in the same family as smarty. Silly me. :) Maybe i'll do a test case... the same document (huge table?) generated both by smarty and xslt and time the results. :) One obvious advantage on using transform with xslt is that the View stays platform independent. That's why I'm curious to test it performance-wise. :) Thanks, you've given me stuff to think about. Oh I see what you mean.

André, regarding XSLT, I had some experiences using it but not for a whole website. XSLT is the exact opposite paradigm of the Template View Pattern: the Transform View Pattern. That means that it must render or "burn" any document before it is served to the browser. I'm not sure if it will scale, but you can of course deploy a cache layer on top of it. Thanks for the comments.

I've read it and it's really good. The Short Cut is a great book for those (like me) doing stuff with PHP and Large Scale Applications. I'm using those techniques at www.adegga.com and it has really been useful to use the Template View Pattern (with Smarty) to organize and schedule development. Good work guys.

I'll definitely get it. Bruno, on the topic... have you ever worked with XSLT for templating a (whole) website? Do you have any idea whether it scales well or not? Very, very interesting. I’ll definitely get it.
