NAME

       XML::Easy::Tranform - XML processing with a clean interface

DESCRIPTION

       The "XML::Easy::Transform::" namespace exists to contain modules that perform
       transformations on XML documents, or parts thereof, in the form of XML::Easy::Element and
       XML::Easy::Content nodes.

       XML::Easy is a collection of modules relating to the processing of XML data.  It includes
       functions to parse and serialise the standard textual form of XML.  When XML data is not
       in text form, XML::Easy processes it in an abstract syntax-neutral form, as a collection
       of linked Perl objects.  This in-program data format shields XML users from the
       infelicities of XML syntax.  Modules under the "XML::Easy::Transform::" namespace operate
       on XML data in this abstract structured form, not on textual XML.

       A transformation on XML data should normally be presented in the form of a function, which
       takes an XML::Easy::Element node as its main parameter, and returns an XML::Easy::Element
       node (or "die"s on error).  The input node and output node each represent the root element
       of the XML document (or fragment thereof) being transformed.  These nodes, of course,
       contain subordinate nodes, according to the structure of the XML data.  A reference to the
       top node is all that is required to effectively pass the whole document.

           Manages XML Namespaces by hoisting all namespace declarations to the root of a
           document.
