Description

At the moment, I use XSLT to create CSV output. It is displayed as a mass of unformatted, not aligned mass of text.
Of course I can copy and paste the output to a tool with CSV feature (line Numbers, different background colour for even/odd lines, but if it is easy(??) to implement these features also would be nice on the output page ;-)
