Hello,

Has anyone ever written a complete CSS Stylesheet for the TEILite XML
DTD?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure writing a CSS stylesheet for TEI document is a good idea:
you should consider first transforming the XML TEI document, which is
a complete format, into a rendition format (like XHTML) using XSLT,
and then (optionnaly) use CSS.

In fact there is such a XSLT stylesheet collection, for transformation
from TEI to HTML, available on the TEI website:
http://www.tei-c.org/Stylesheets/teixsl.html

Actually, I'm looking for a CSS stylesheet for use with XXE. There is
none included with the software, as is the case for DocBook.

Also, in my experience, CSS stylesheets are a very convenient,
although limited way of previewing an XML document while authoring the
document. It's sufficient when there is no real transformation
involved (ie, data manipulation, such as sorting).

There are two CSS stylesheets at http://www.tei-c.org/Stylesheets/.
