Ushanas,
One interesting dynamic use of XML, XSL, Database Data
and Database Metadata can be found in some demos I built
for our PLSXML suite of utilities/demos available at:
http://www.oracle.com/xml/plsxml/index.html
See the section on "DBXML Query and Tree Visualization Demo"
This demo uses a combination of routines provided in the
PLSXML packages to display the results of any SQL statement
as a visual, DHTML tree display in IE5.
-> Format the results of a SQL statement (with optional
nested/related info, too!) in XML
-> Dynamically build an XSL stylesheet based on data
dictionary metadata to transform the results of
the query above into a canonical "tree of nodes"
-> Use a static XSL stylesheet to transform the
"tree of nodes" above into a collapsible/expandible
DHTML tree display in the browser.
The source for these examples are in JavaScript (if stuff is
done in the browser) and in PL/SQL if its running in
the database, but the source code is still quite readble
and would be easily "morphable" into another programming
language if you're not presently using an Oracle DB.
