Reformatting/Sanitizing XML output into a simpler node tree - XSL/XSLT transformation with PHP

I am outputing some Views from a site running Drupal-5 (yet to upgrade) and I need to channel this information for consumption by a Flash animation that will scroll through the information that will be managed in the said Drupal site. Drupal-5 does nto provide a very flexible approach to generating XML/RSS with vustom fields from a VIEW. Ofcourse it can generate XML output, but the node structure leaves quite a bit to be desired.

So I am employing an XSLT and a few lines of PHP to fish through the convoluted XML file to rebuild a nice cleaner and more precise XML node tree.

The PHP

<?php
$xml = new DomDocument;
$xml->load('http://myxmlsource.idonny.net.org/viewoutputfile?format=idxml');

$xsl = new DomDocument;
$xsl->load('http://idonny.net/sites/mypath/themes/cbixml/case_rss.xslt');

$proc = new xsltprocessor;
$proc->importStyleSheet($xsl);
$result = $proc->transformToXML($xml);
print $result; // print output of the mash
?>

Here is the XSLT file that is being applied to the colvoluted XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output
method="xml"
encoding="ISO-8859-1"
omit-xml-declaration="no"
standalone="no"
cdata-section-elements="description"
indent="yes"
media-type="text/xml" />
<xsl:template match="/drupal_page/div/div/div/ul">
<cbixml>
<xsl:for-each select="li">
    <cbinode>
        <title><xsl:value-of select="node/title"/></title>
         <industry_sector><xsl:value-of select="node/industry_sector/ul/li/a"/></industry_sector>
         <link>http://idonny.com/node/<xsl:value-of select="node/id"/></link>
         <id><xsl:value-of select="node/id"/></id>
         <image_path><xsl:value-of select="node/image/img/@src"/></image_path>
         <description><xsl:value-of select="node/description"/></description>
    </cbinode>
</xsl:for-each>
</cbixml>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Naturally, you can have the XSLT file pull and place anything you want fromt eh source XML file to result in a new strcuture/format

Enjoy!
