Associating Style Sheets with XML documents

Description

A style sheet can be associated with an XML document by including one or more processing instructions with a target of xml-stylesheet in the document's prolog. This processing instruction follows the behaviour of the HTML 4.0. The xml-stylesheet processing instruction is allowed only in the prolog of an XML document. The syntax of XML constrains where processing instructions are allowed in the prolog; the xml-stylesheet processing instruction is allowed anywhere in the prolog that meets these constraints. The xml-stylesheet processing instruction is parsed in the same way as a start-tag, with the exception that entities other than predefined entities must not be referenced.
