I hope this overview of the DVWP gives you some more context with which to think about the DVWP and gives you a few ideas about how you might use one.

The original little EUSP article led to a 20-part series about the humble XSL tags and some of the XPath functions, with a few dalliances along the way. There were, in fact, more parts to that series than I had predicted in the introductory article. Because the series had such great readership, I tacked on quite a few more articles. To tell the truth, I didn’t think the outline through as well as I might have, and there was simply more to cover than I thought at first.

Thanks to Mark Miller for believing in my early scratchings enough to give me the chance to write for EUSP. Thanks also to all of the other talented writers at EUSP; their articles have often taught me something significant or caused me to rethink my own ways of doing things. Most of all, thanks to the quiet orchestrator of all that is EUSP, Natasha Felshman. I have greatly enjoyed my collaborations with Natasha, whether working on my own articles, trying to help her to format others’ articles, or wrangling the underlying technologies into submission. I am hoping there will be many more collaborations to come.
