Linking to XSL


John Smart

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,Currently to display some xml filtered by some parameters in an xsl file, we create a html file and use java to pull in the xsl and the xml.A quick question - is it possible for a link from a html page to point directly to an xsl file, which looks up the xml itself? I'm guessing the answer is no, in fact i'm certain, but I might be missing something, as we're pretty new to this stuff.Basically rather than having to have a html and xsl file for every single page we link to, we'd just have xsl files. Thanks,John

You could have a single HTML page, and a single XSLT file, pointing to a single XML file. JavaScript, residing on the HTML page would simply adjust parameters (xsl:param elements) from the XSLT, and XSLT itself can be made to behave differently based on values of parameters.The JavaScript to do that is a little complicated though. So complicated, that you'll have to use a library like Sarissa to overcome at least most of the issues.
