SLAX Elements Overview

SLAX elements are written with only the open tag. The contents of the tag appear immediately following the open tag. The contents can be either a simple expression or a more complex expression placed inside braces:

<top> {
    <one>;
    <two> {
        <three>;
        <four>;
        <five> <six>;
    }
}

The XSLT equivalent:

<top>
    <one/>
    <two>
        <three/>
        <four/>
        <five>
            <six/>
        </five>
    </two>
</top>

Using these nesting techniques and removing the close tag reduces clutter and increases code clarity.
