XSLT, XPath, RDF

XSL: Extensible Stylesheet Language. Allows structural changes of XML documents -- such as: changing the order of content, removing content etc. (Therefore, also called XSLT -- XSL Transformations)
XSLT files are typically declarative, since documents are static.

XPath: In order to make these structural changes, we need some way to reference XML nodes. This can be done using the XPath standard.

RDF: Resource Description Framework: A metadata data model. Used in Firefox to manage a number of internal data structures. Implemented as XML-formatted files.
