XML view with xsl

Hi I have returned all the xml for a views contents. I now want to use an xsl to format it.

I am using a view template (using $$ViewBody) and a display view using html setting. I keep trying to get the xsl to do anything but I’m failing.

Any ideas?

Start with my Domino Web Tools (DWT) project on OpenNTF.org. One of the tools is xml/xslt views and outlines. It’s all done client-side and supports IE and Mozilla based browsers. Even works on the Mac if you use a Mozilla based browser. Safari will be support soon as well.

  • There’s a pretty good “Redbook” on Domino, XML, and XSL wandering around the IBM site. If I had a link I’d paste it for you, but I don’t. I got it from a co-worker.- There tons of XSL-related web sites. One of the things I found more helpful was “zevon”, who did a set of (winbloze style) help files on various technologies. His samples for XSL were very handy when figuring things out.

  • I’d also recommend using Java to develop your XSL. My experience with Domino’s implementation has been less than favourable. It’s very simple to lash up a quick XSLT in Java, and when it’s working, you can port it to Domino. (shrug) Your mileage may vary. There are certianly zillions (well maybe a few less than that) posts in this forum on that topic.

  • Hope this helps…
