See the "Oracle XSQL Servlet" on our Technet website
for a servlet that does what you're talking about.
http://technet.oracle.com/tech/xml
You can also try out Cocoon (java.apache.org)
or XT's Servlet support (www.jclark.com).

Subject: XSL
| Hi all,
| Yet another idiot question..
| I have found lots of info on XML, and lots on XSL, but very little on
| combining them!
|
| Hypothetical case; let's say that I have a servlet (eg Java) runing which
| accepts an HTTP POST/GET to query a product catalogue. The servlet queries
a
| database and then generates an XML document such as this..
|
|
| <?xml version="1.0"?>
| <!DOCTYPE ProdList SYSTEM "http://www.acme.com/dtd/ProdList.dtd">
| <ProdList>
| <hdr date="19991201">
| <title>Catalogue as of 1st December</title>
| </hdr>
| <prod code="101" short="keyboard" price="50.00">Qwerky keyboard</prod>
| <prod code="MS1" short="Mouse" price="5.00">Mickey Mouse</prod>
| <prod code="CRT2" short="Monitor" price="100.00">Monitor Lizard</prod>
| </ProdList>
|
|
| Let's say we have a DTD available on the web server
| "www.acme.com/dtd/ProdList.dtd"
| which looks like this..
|
| <!ELEMENT ProdList ( hdr, prod* ) >
| <!-- header specifies effective date -->
| <!ELEMENT hdr ( title? ) >
| <!ATTLIST hdr
| date CDATA #IMPLIED
| >
| <!ELEMENT title (#PCDATA)* >
| <!-- each product has a code, short-descripiton and a price. -->
| <!-- the data holds full description -->
| <!ELEMENT prod (#PCDATA)* >
| <!ATTLIST prod
| code CDATA #REQUIRED
| short CDATA #IMPLIED
| price CDATA #IMPLIED
| >
| >
|
| Let's say that a style sheet is also available on www.acme... to ouput the
| catalogue as an HTML table, looks like this ... (which probably has lots
of
| errors!)
|
| <?xml version="1.0"?>
| <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org.TR/WD-xsl">
| <xsl:template match="/">
| <HTML>
| <HEAD>
| <TITLE>
| <xsl:for-each select="hdr">
| <xsl:value-of select="."/>
| </xsl:for-each>
| </TITLE>
| </HEAD>
| <BODY BGCOLOR="#808080">
| <H1>Product List</H1>
| <TABLE BORDER="1" WIDTH="400">
| <TR>
| <TH>Stock Code</TH>
| <TH>Short Description</TH>
| <TH>Long Description</TH>
| <TH>Unit Price</TH>
| </TR>
| <xsl:for-each select="ProdList/prod">
| <TR>
| <TD> <xsl:value-of select="@code"/> </TD>
| <TD> <xsl:value-of select="@short"/> </TD>
| <TD> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </TD>
| <TD> <xsl:value-of select="@price"/> </TD>
| </TR>
| </xsl:for-each>
| </TABLE>
| </BODY>
| </HTML>
| </xsl:template>
| </xsl:stylesheet>
|
|
|
| How should the servlet change it's ouput (text/xml?) so that the browser
(eg
| IE5) will pick-up the XSL and format the xml output into the desired HTML
| table ?
| What changes are required to the above files ?
|
